in all seriousness, be real with em. let em know money is tight. get a feel to see if they are serious about bringing you on board. if the only thing they require is a good face to face, i say beg, borrow or steal to make the trip. but only if its a last step interview. - which i hope it is, - good luck man

Sharp portfolio too, by the way. Good luck with the interview.

Thanks gramme... ditto.

Good luck!

So I just got a response:
"Hi Matt,
We'd expect you to cover your own travel and expenses for the trip. The good
news for you is that it's tax deductible (job search expenses).Let me know when you've confirmed travel."
What?!? Is this normal for design firms? These people have some massive clients and are supported by a big parent company! I ain't made of money...being unemployed for 4 months with only sporadic freelance so far makes gramme a poor boy

you may not be the only other finalist for the job.
they may have the perspective of "why should we drop cash on soneone we dont know to be a gurantee."
could also be one of those, how badly does he want it deals, too.

For the job I'm going for in HK, they will be paying for my flight from Australia to HK. depends on the company I guess.
