If travel is part of the job requirement, it will typically be posted in the job announcement, so you are aware of that before you apply for the job. The interviewer wants to make sure you understand the requirement and see that travel will not be an issue for you if hired. Ensure the interviewer that you will be available for travel and that you look forward to the opportunity to do so. It shows the interviewer you read the job description in full and are a flexible team member.

You want to avoid saying that you cannot travel if hired. If the interviewer is looking for a healthcare project manager to travel 75% of the time, you responding that you cannot will be a deal-breaker. If you have an outside obligation that prohibits you from traveling, describe why traveling would be difficult. If you are honest with the interviewer and suggest ways to rearrange your other obligations so you can travel, the interviewer will be more understanding and decide if they can be more flexible with your schedule if hired.

"Yes, I would be available to travel that often if hired. I saw that requirement in the job description, and it was one of the biggest reasons I applied to this position. I worked as a traveling nurse before changing careers and loved that aspect of the job. I enjoy traveling and experiencing different places and meeting new people."

"Yes, I would be able to travel if hired, but I would need a little bit of advance notice if possible. I am a single mother and need to arrange childcare for my son. My mother is retired, and lives close by, and she can usually watch my son for extended periods. If she is not available, I have a friend who can step in to help. I can assure you that traveling will not be an issue if you choose me for the position."
