My company has on multiple occasions brought in applicants to interview who aren't qualified for any positions we're actively looking to fill. I'm not 100% sure why that is, but it's led to us rejecting candidates who everyone otherwise felt pretty positive about.
That might be part of it too. I got interviewed because I was friends with someone there. But there was no formal job description, just what people would describe to me during the interview. I only have ~5 years experience, and it was for a senior-level role. It was a little odd they made that decision during the tech interview though.
