That is only wasted time if there was next best opportunity. People are looking for work so going for on-site interview is not waste of time. What would you do, go to the beach, hang out in a bar? So your time would be spent better. Maybe you would go to other interview where you would be hired but you cannot know this in advance. The same with company they don't know if other candidates would be better until they actually do on-site. If you can predict future then yes. But most don't. |

What's the unemployment rate for top-end talent in Silicon Valley? 2%? 1%? This foolish strategy of candidates-time-is-free is designed to turn off people who already have jobs and want an upgrade. Not only are you _not_ hiring the best, you're limiting your applicant pool to the worst.
<sarcasm>Why, sure, I'll blow 7 hours including 2 hours' roundtrip commute to audition for a 20% chance of a $10k raise.</sarcasm>
