Nothing is agreed until you have a written offer. There are plenty of things that can come up in the screening process that won’t disqualify you from being interviewed but might be a deciding factor once they have a better sense of the leading candidates. Location is one of those factors. It’s not much different than if you interviewed for a job saying honestly that you were open to relocating to Cleveland, then you accepted a different offer because it was in a city you like more (sorry Cleveland). Bummer but a totally fair part of the process.

Ugh, I’m sorry. I’m in a similar boat. Everything going well (remote okay, yay) then in my last interview they casually mentioned *required international travel* to shmooze a client 4 weeks per year.

Killin me. Now I’m back at square one. Wish they were up front about that in the job description.
