Overview
Los Rios is committed to an accessible recruitment and hiring process, allowing all qualified applicants an equitable opportunity for employment. That's why we offer limited travel reimbursement for a portion of travel costs to candidates who are selected for interview and who reside out of town, state, or country.
The job posting will indicate whether candidates are eligible for limited reimbursement.
Guidelines for Reimbursement
Mileage Determination
Reimbursement amount is made based on travel for one-way mileage from the physical address listed on the candidate's application to the interview location. See our full Candidate Reimbursement Policy (PDF) for complete information.
Mileage is determined using a GPS map (for example, Google Maps or MapQuest).
| Interview Level | One-Way Mileage (Physical Address to Interview Location) | Maximum Reimbursement Amount |
|---|---|---|
| First interview | 399 miles or fewer | $0 |
| First and second interview | 399 miles or fewer (combined) | $250 |
| First interview | Between 400 and 599 miles | $250 |
| First and second interview | Between 400 and 599 miles (combined) | $350 |
| First interview | 600 miles or more | $350 |
| First and second interview | 600 miles or more (combined) | $450 |
Travel Receipts
To be reimbursed, the candidate must submit a printed copy of the GPS driving directions either at the time of their interview or within seven days of their interview.
Processing Time
Please allow six to eight weeks for a reimbursement check to be processed.
Multiple Interviews
Candidates who interview for more than one position within the district on the same day or consecutive days will receive a single reimbursement. In addition, candidates who submit multiple reimbursement requests at different colleges for the same expenses (for example, a flight) will receive only one reimbursement.
Questions?
If you are a candidate with questions about reimbursement, then please contact the college department where you interviewed.
