What is the point of a job interview?

obviously almost everyone tells a little white lie now and again in job interviews, they want to "sell" themselves to the interviewer so they can get the job they want. The point of an interview is so that the interviewer can meet candidates face-to-face, find out if they're skilled enough for the job and obviously what they're personality is like. you can have a sh!t hot CV but be a total ar$e in person. THAT is the point in job interviews.
