Good morning, so I did a final interview which was physical after 2 virtual interview, it made me travel long distance.
After 2 days, through the recruiting agency I applied with, the company asked that I send my flight and travel invoice that they look to reimburse or cover that expenses. So I'm wondering what it means for me and the application, does it signify that I'm not considered for the role and they just want to be kind or is a standard practice?

Not sure I follow. Do you think they *wouldn’t* reimburse you if you got the job? It’s probably a separate department that deals with expenses anyway - they won’t even know if you’ve got the job or not 🙂

Okay
I appreciate

Standard practice for on site interviews to reimburse from my experience. Your recruiter should have told you beforehand how the costs are handled

like

Thank you

That is standard practice. They should be reimbursing you if they asked you to come in for an interview. It doesn’t mean you’re not being considered for the role.

Thank you

It's not something you can read anything into. It is standard for companies who cover travel expenses to cover it no matter where you are in the process. Good luck, I hope you get good news soon!

Thank you, I needed that

This is usually a neutral to positive sign. It suggests process maturity rather than outcome. I would not read it as an offer signal, just professional housekeeping.

Would love to know what happened after this! Did you get offer?
