This role may require some travel. The interviewer wants to know if you are willing to drive to different locations daily. Provide your response, and don't be afraid to mention any concerns you may have, such as distance, mileage, parking, etc.

"I don't mind driving. Would gas and tolls be reimbursed for this travel?"

"I am very familiar with the area so driving will not be an issue for me."

Anonymous Answer

"I travel quite a bit for my current job, they reimburse gas and tolls, which is nice."

While it's great to hear that your current job has given you experience and comfort with traveling to multiple sites, I suggest adding a sentence that directly answers the question you've been asked, such as "If offered this role, I would be very comfortable with traveling daily to and from various buildings."

"Yes, I'm ok with traveling. I had a job where I had to travel over 45 miles to and from work. . The traveling to and from work did not bother me and I always got to work on time."

Great! The interviewer will be pleased to hear that you don't mind traveling. Can you give some additional details about the traveling you've done in the past? What steps did you take to make sure you were punctual despite having such a long commute? Are there things you like about traveling? End your answer by assuring the interviewer that this won't be a problem at all for you. Good job!
