> make sure you are paying your candidates market wage for the interview

I always wondered how workable that could be at any scale. We sometimes hear about company straight contracting small fixes to a candidate and use that experience to decide on hiring.

But most job interviews I've ever received where while being in a full time exclusive contract with my actual employer, and I wouldn't quit before getting the next job. Doing some coding interview on the side is of course fine, but the moment money gets into the mix, I feel it becomes a weird line to walk on whether I'm breaking my exclusive contract or not.

This line being iffier if I'm getting paid by a competitor in the field for the interview.
