There are 52 weeks in a year -- minus 2 weeks vacation (USA) and 1 week holidays, yields 49 weeks. 49 * 5 days = 245 days. So if you take one day off to interview, that's 0.4% of your annual pay. So DA should ask the companies to pay the candidate 0.4% of their bid to bring the candidate in for an interview. In the current system, making a bid doesn't mean the company has skin in the game (since they may not make an offer), but it costs the candidate a lot to take a day off. |

The company who really needs different incentives is the recruiter themselves. They can shotgun their database of candidates at their database of companies and hope something sticks, and waste a lot of candidate and company time in the process. There is no cost to them to make bad recommendations. (OK, eventually they lose the company's recruitment business, but I think that penalty is too tenuous).
So, make somebody pay 0.4% of the candidates salary for the interview, but make it the recruiting company. That will align everyone's incentives.
