What if a company offered to pay you a day's wages, or something reasonable still (if it's less than that)?
Whittle down the pool even further and the ones you think look good on paper, and after an interview (or a series of them), have them come in, on a paid basis.
It'd be a sign of good faith that they're both serious about finding a good candidate, and respectful of your time?
I know some companies do paid stuff like that. If only it were more commonplace.

- hackinthebochs 10y agoThat sounds like a fair process. Employers are in a position of power and can easily abuse it. When the employer also invests in me as a candidate it shows they're serious about me and also ethical. Sounds like a win-win.
