I guess I have heard of highly-selective tech companies with lengthy interview processes. A decade ago, a friend was flown from Australia to California for a three-day job interview with Apple. He got the job and he’s still working for them, so in that instance it was worth it for both parties. I hope someone’s done a study on whether that’s more generally true.
