I’d be curious as to the percentage of interviews are fake HR go-thru-the-motions as the job was filled internally before someone had to post it publicly to cover their EOE ass.

I dealt with that many moons ago. The prospective employer deliberately distorted something I said and then used it as an excuse not to hire me. (I found out later he had hired a pretty grad student from the university department he was out of...)

I simply cannot tell you how many times I been have down that road. Not sour grapes, I have have confirmed on many ocassions that often a job is posted, the requirements are unnecessarily narrow, but if I qualify I apply only to later discover that it was all Kabuki. Seriously, that has happened to me a lot.
