Based on the most helpful WSO content, HR often asks logistical questions like notice period, visa requirements, title expectations, and RSUs during late-stage interviews as part of their due diligence. This doesn't necessarily guarantee an offer but indicates that you're being seriously considered. These questions help HR prepare for potential onboarding and ensure there are no major obstacles if they decide to extend an offer. However, it’s not a definitive sign of an offer, as they might still be evaluating other candidates or finalizing decisions.
