Suncoast Humane Society interview questions

I applied on LinkedIn and the CEO reached out to me for a cover letter, which I then submitted. Before even scheduling an interview, she emailed me to ask if I had looked at relocating to the area and if it were a viable option. Why would I apply for a job if I didn’t look into that?? I told her I couldn’t know for sure without know the salary for the position, which was unpublished. How would I know if I can afford the cost of living if you provide no information about the salary?? Dodged a bullet with this one!
