To everyone bemoaning the introduction of a class such as this, it's a 1 credit class, which at Stanford roughly translates to about 3hrs/week of work given that you're expected to take 15 credits per quarter. It is comparable to a class on financial responsibility or golf. Its focus isn't so much on how to crack a technical interview than it is on how to prepare for a job interview in general.
Mock interviews, resume writing and critiques, life at startups, how to answer team/behavioral questions, and panels of employers and employees are all covered with sample whiteboard/coding problems only being given one week of attention. This is simply preparation for how to professionally navigate the job landscape.
