I&#x27;ve made the mistake in the past of overcommitting myself to interviewing with multiple companies at once. The time commitment wasn&#x27;t the worst part, the real factor I didn&#x27;t for see is that interviewing is <i>stressful</i> and mentally exhausting. On top of the interview itself, there&#x27;s the hours of studying you have to put in. It&#x27;s extremely hard to do while doing your full time job.<p>Now I have a rule that I will interview with ONE company at a time. Consequently, I am very careful about picking which companies I will interview with.
