Anyone else done an interview for a friend?

So just for the shits and giggles my friend sent me his CV and let me do his 2 interviews. I managed to do a good job bullshitting what I did at the job and coming up with stories on the spot when quizzed on specifics. Long story short he got offered the job (he doesn’t want it which is why he let me do the interview in the first place). I thought it was a good experience to have to fully rely on BS and was proud of my ability. Has anyone else done this before and actually taken the job afterwards?
