The stakes and environment aren't even close for this to be a meaningful comparison. A job interview will always carry some degree of pressure, no matter the circumstances. What I fail to understand is why would someone feel more threatened by this scenario as opposed to, say, answering a barrage of technical question or solving algorithmic problems.
