I learned early on in my career to not bother interviewing with non-local companies that wouldn't pay for my interview expenses up-front (hotel, airfare if necessary). If they're that cheap, they're not going to be a good place to work for.
I've also found that smaller companies tend to be really bad about this stuff (not universally!). Big companies are almost always very fair and honorable about treating interviewees well.

- magduf 8y agoYep, exactly this. HR can be evil at times, but here their evilness is actually a good thing, because it's cold, hard rational logic: "nickel-and-diming on petty shit" is bad for the company's bottom line.
