Malcolm Gladwell said, "Practice isn't the thing you do once you're good. It's the thing you do that makes you good."
Eleanor Roosevelt said," Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people."

Yes, you have to practise, but it has to be the right kind of practice.
Focus your interview preparation on emphasising concepts and ideas and how you used your transferable skills to make the achievements that brought them to life.
Focus on the outcomes and not the events that produced the outcomes and certainly avoid the easy option of talking ad nauseam about responsibilities and former colleagues!
