+1 Also realize the limitation of doing this: You'll get "practice", but you won't get "feedback".

+1 Also realize the limitation of doing this: You'll get "practice", but you won't get "feedback". If you practice with a bunch of B and C companies, but end up getting rejected from As, then you won't know why that is happening. At that point, you may get tired of interviewing and would end up taking something that's suboptimal. So guard against that. If you want to work at an A company, then I'd say at least some of your practice interviews should also be with A companies. Even then, you won't get the raw, uncut, deliberate feedback that you want. For that, you want to practice with seasoned interviewers. Use something like us ( http://InterviewKickstart.com ) or what Aline does ( http://interviewing.io ).
