The thing is that they're also interviewing you. If I expect a candidate to spend time prepping and then taking time off of work to come in and talk to us, the least I can do is take the time to properly prep for them.

I know that when I'm on the candidate side of the fence it makes a big difference to me if a company/interviewers seem like they've actually taken the time to get to know who I am instead of just walking in a room and that being the first time they've checked out my resume. I realize it's not personal and I don't expect it but if a company/interviewer puts in the extra effort it's a definite positive.
