    I did three interviews once with a company. Even shadowed someone. Never doing that again. It’s a complete waste of time.

      It needs to be illegal for employers to waste too much of our time.

      This goes for interviews, commutes, and other situations where an employee is expected to give up their free time for free.

      Thie idea that we owe parts of our lives and self that were never agreed upon when signing the contract needs to go away. The puritan work ethic needs to go away.

      And we will need unions to accomplish this.

        If they had to pay people for interviews they’d probably be a lot snappier about the process.

        Like, sure, I’ll do nine hours of interviews if you’re paying me $100/hr.

          I’m glad I don’t work a job where they give tasks as part of interviews. I’d want to invoice them for my work if they did.

      Best job I had so far gave me an offer after a single interview, worst one (current) took three, I recently quit after getting another single interview offer, I’m optimistic.
