Andrea et al, I do think this is a bit public and without knowing the full situation it is difficult to judge but from what I can determine from this spat:
The critical issue here is that your company offered to reimburse him for travel costs. As to why he had to do a drive 1200 mile round trip and not fly (and provide hotel accommodation for the night before the interview) is a bit strange. This may have been your decision not to offer flight/hotel or drive/hotel or he chose to drive up and do the interview on the same day, which I would never consider doing and indicated by the fact he was late for his interview. It is at this point the relationship/interview process got messed up. Somebody made a poor decision. Whoever it is I hope has learnt from this experience. Candidates need to arrive fresh and ready for an interview, not messed up by a 8+ hour drive before hand either through choice or by not being offered a hotel package. However if you did offer to reimburse the individual for his travel costs and you actually interviewed him, no matter how badly the interview went, he is due his travel costs. The rest is just noise.
