15. Are you willing to travel to visit our locations or for learning opportunities?
Why the Interviewer Asks This Question
Some jobs require travel. Others offer travel opportunities. If travel is a requirement of the job, the interviewer is looking to make sure you are open to it. They are also looking to see if you are passionate about continuous learning.

How to Answer
If the job posting listed a travel requirement, let the interviewer know you are aware of the amount of travel required and any restrictions you might face around traveling. If it did not list travel as a requirement, be honest and let the interviewer know if you are comfortable traveling. Include brief details such as how much notice you would need or how far/long you are comfortable traveling. Finish your response with a focus on advancing your skills and experience through training opportunities.
