Perhaps more than any other sport, golf focuses pressure on the player. There are no time constraints, as there are in other sports. Your competitors are not allowed to hinder you, as they are in other sports. The pressure originates in yourself; it builds from doubts.

We shall choose our adversaries, not the other way around.

Job interview is so bogus often in a private organization that it is conducted to merely collect market and competitors' information with no intention to select the candidate for the vacant position.

The clients are loyal to their benefits and not to any brand or sales person, so it is futile on part of an organisation to think that it can replicate its competitors' business growth by just recruiting or poaching their star performer unless and until it offers him the same working policy, strategy, culture and environment.

There are many private companies which conduct an interview not for the selection of any candidates in own organization but to merely collect market and competitors' information and such positions are often shown frequently through placement consultants or ads of job vacancy.
