Conspiracy theory... the real reason companies want you working on site is because they know you know they'll notice if you take off too much time to interview

  People don't take time off for interviews, they fall sick or have mysterious appointments. And employers in that position don't really care, because it's better to let the employee leave voluntarily than to fire them and have to go through the entire HR process and pay unemployment.

    Yes, and employees that are actively trying to leave (different than passively interviewing for drive-by opportunities) are probably putting in minimum input, maybe less. It's like 3-6mo to fire a software engineer, and its a ton of work. If they don't like it here, let them leave.

      Some companies will even give you a bonus at any time to quit.
