no, the interview is a two way street. you are evaluating your potential employer just as much as they are evaluating you as a candidate. either can turn either down

It’s a final round because they’re not yet ready to give you an offer — which, they may decide not to extend an offer after the final round.

Nothing is a done deal until it’s a done deal.

I received an offer from IBM Bangalore. However I saw openings at my preferred location Kochi only after the interviews. I called the HR after getting their point of contact mail and I asked if it's possible to switch. They said I'm already tagged to a project and that they'll check from their end if it can be done.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.
