Before_script repeated for each job. Should it not be execute once only?

GitLab CI/CD

Hello,

According to the documentation [1] we can use before_script “To avoid running the same script multiple times across your jobs”. I have 4 stages with one job each [2], however the before_script is repeated for
each of the jobs. See for example:

Did I misinterpret the documentation or am I doing something wrong?

TIA
