Hi All,
I'm being made redundant and I'm presently job hunting. I've been invited to attend an aptitude test and that is 80 miles from where I live, am I entitled to ask for mileage?

I wouldn't ask for it. If it was offered, fair enough, but I wouldn't ask. I did a 500 mile round trip for an interview last month but it didn't cross my mind to ask for expenses.0

Always consider asking what expences will be paid even for local trips.0
