Yeah, and even then it's purely interperative on their behalf. I think some interviewers may be adopting a psychologic approach in the attempt to boost their image rather than actually understanding what they're doing.

Of course, this doesn't apply to anyone who has ever interviewed me, or is likely to in the future.
