It's been 4 years since my first and only job interview and now it's time to move on and advance my career to the next stage. For this, I plan to interview for a big company. If that fails, I have a list of other places where I can try. To sum up, a priority list.
I'm taking my time to do my research, to prepare myself to pump my chances up and, I was wondering if part of this preparation process could be to navigate through one or more interviews at the other companies.
So, my question is: should I go directly to interview with my #1 pick or test myself beforehand with the others?
If you could help me, I'm trying to identify the pros and cons of each approach.
I don't pretend to waste anybody's time.
PS: this is my first question so, please feel free to ask for clarification. For example, I'm a software developer located in South America and the company I aim for is a 100+ countries multinational.

"I don't pretend to waste anybody's time." Would you take a job if offered by one of these playground companies?
