Who pays for the travel expenses of applicants in an external advertised appointment process?
When you are selected to participate in an appointment process, the hiring organization may authorize you to travel on official government business and reimburse pre-determined travel expenses incurred on your trip. This would most likely be specified on the advertisement. Should this be the case, consult the Travel Directive and its annexes for more information. Please note that provisions for you as a traveler will be different from those of employees. Also, not all agencies, boards and commissions are subject to this Travel Directive. In these instances, the hiring manager will provide you with more information.
