Before COVID I would regularly apply for jobs, almost always get them, and decline largely to keep my interview skills fresh.
Well, wait, isn't this just karma in action, then? Sounds like you deliberately wasted a lot of other peoples' valuable time.
No, because software engineering interviews are a specific skill and you need to be on top of it - eg leetcode, sys design and soft skills and hiring managers are making everything harder
Ie its a race to the bottom - there is no gold standard for a productive software engineer who is transferable to another company that really people trust
