>>If the company has one position to fill, and if they ever interview/contact more than one person for filling that position all the people who they contacted other than the person who got the job has wasted time, right?
No, this is more like the company interviewing people when there are -- and will be -- no positions to fill. It's like a hiring manager going, "man, I really need some practice interviewing people, I should go post some jobs on job sites!"

If the company has one position to fill, and if they ever interview/contact more than one person for filling that position all the people who they contacted other than the person who got the job has wasted time, right?
In short, companies have only themselves to blame for this (sad) situation.
