Questions to ask about field expenses
Travel and equipment expectations should be understood before you start work.
A practical approach
Ask which costs you may be responsible for and where reimbursement rules, if any, are documented. Discuss travel between markets, required equipment and any optional purchases separately. Do not assume that a tool mentioned during recruiting will be supplied. Confirm the arrangement with the person responsible for the written terms.
Put it into practice
- List expected expense categories
- Clarify optional versus required items
- Get the applicable policy
