    FFS man!

    every client is different, there is no correct answer to this.

    Some will be fine with a phone interview, I guess most would rather face to face at your expense, some *might* pay for a contractor's flights.

      I didn't have an interview, my CV was enough.

      I should add though that this was because I've had interviews with them before.
      Signatures.....what's the point?

        I can speak 3 foreign languages French Dutch and German but not at IT
        level which is the basic problem when applying for foreign language jobs.
        I speak to my wife in French but we don't discuss IT.
        They don't normally teach SAP french at a language school,or publish books
        ie SAP press in French
