Why did you agree to talk if you are more in passive search?

I agreed to communicate because even with passive job searching, it's important to maintain professional contacts and stay informed about the market. Interview conversations are an opportunity to learn about new technologies, projects, and companies, as well as to showcase your skills and experience.

Moreover, passive job searching does not mean giving up on career development — sometimes interesting opportunities can appear unexpectedly, and I want to be prepared for such possibilities. It is also a chance to receive feedback and understand how employers see me, which helps in professional growth.
