How do you manage interviews while traveling? I'm trying to limit the # of days I'm away from work. Can I push to have the 1st and 2nd rounds via Skype and then plan to have the final round in person?

Although it's difficult to schedule sometimes. If you're on the normal Monday-Thursday travel schedule. Try and schedule in-person interviews on Fridays.

Fridays

Take a couple of days off, be flexible

Try to do it on Fridays. Recruiters are aware that employed people have scheduling restrictions. Take a day off only if it is really needed and if you are deeper into the process, like the final interviews.
