Just because this is 'standard practise' doesn't make it fair! Help me think of Machiavellian ways round this

DH is a teacher, he is going for Deputy Heads interviews next week. One Monday at his current workplace, one Tuesday at another.

He is resigned to the fact that on Monday if he gets offered the job they will expect him to take it immediately and not go to the interview the next day. And if he doesn't they will immediately offer it to the next person on the list.

Meaning that he can't go to both and weigh up his own options

In no other job does this happen as far as I know.

I've said to turn his mobile off (if he can escape out the door at the end of the working day before they 'catch' him) and I'll say he's out at a meeting if they call in the evening.

Anyone else think of anything good?

It's something I hate about teaching. Personally I'd say go out for the second one.
