#2> Bring in remaining candidates over the next 2-3 days .. Collect feedback at the end of each day
I would love to know how many candidates this is actually viable for. My assumption is it would significantly reduce my selection pool.

#3This is a terrible idea. I barely can schedule time when I'm job hunting (while still employed) to do the marathon 5-8 hour interview blocks that many companies demand. There's only so many PTO hours I can burn, and I'm certainly skeptical of working several (!) possibly unpaid days just for the chance of being offered a position. The hell with that.

I would think a truly serious candidate would be willing to invest some of his PTO for this type of scenario.

#5I suppose it depends heavily on your field, but I can't see this working well for a job that has a lengthy ramp-up time (where it might take months of training to start doing anything useful).

If you do real work for another company you should be always paid for that.

Also, depending on local and regional laws, asking people to work for free can be illegal.

This is focused on tech jobs. What is for you, a "job that has a lengthy ramp-up time"?
