Daren-

My last employer flew me out from CA to Detroit, rented me a car, and put me up in a hotel 2 nights for the interview. You can bet the interview lasted more than 20 minutes. The employer before that flew me from Oregon to CA early on a Saturday morning and I spent the next 4 hours talking to the guys I'd report to. They also asked peers to come in for a little face time.



I'm no hot dog management type, just an old fart engineer who chose a technical career path rather than management.

Remember that interviews aren't advesarial- if you bagged the interview, you pretty much have already demonstrated technical capabilities. The question is how do you fit in the existing or proposed team. Chemistry is pretty significant, attitude moreso.
