You have no heart: someone is struggling in confusion (maybe I know him) and you're just thinking about eating

- Set up trestle table in the garden, furnish with jug and ice
- Attire yourself in blazer/ flannels and straw-hat of choice

At least for me this is a big question
A very big international company offered me to have an interview, and I would be very happy .... but it is quite far from my place; the option are:
-drive for 6 hours, have the interview and then drive back for other 6 hours, 200 euro
-take a plane, 3-4 hours per trip (connection delay), much more comfortable, 500 euro
By the way my monthly wage is around 2000 euro, so the costs could be important
The question is... in case I should opt for the plane, should I ask the company for a reimbursing policy or just take all the risk on my shoulders without mentioning the costs?
Thanks for your suggestions

Ask if video or conference call interview is an option
|
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately this is not an option
Asked for that but they want to have a "face to face"
|
|
|
|
|
Is the train a feasible option?

Unfortunately not, google says 10-12 hours

Put a big box on a pallet.
Phone a palletised freight distribution company.
Get in the box.
Should be less than 200 euros.

I think I would get out not in a very good shape and the tie could be not well ironed

You're in Italy?
I used to work for a palletised freight network that operates in Italy (I installed all of their servers and converted the software to work in Italy / Italian some years ago), I'm sure I could persuade them to take good care of you.
And if you do get squished, you'd be insured.

Then it comes to be an interesting option

Your first option isn't viable: After a 6 hour drive you will be in no good shape to sit an interview! Instead, add on another 100 euros or so for an overnight hotel room - you want to present at your best, not tired and stressed out...
You probably need to add another 50 euro to the plane trip costs as well to cover taxi fees at the other end, unless they will meet you at the airport.
I'd be tempted to talk to them, explain the situation and suggest (again) an initial video call, followed by a face-to-face if that works out well for boths sides - unless they want to stump up for the travel expenses!
