Retail positions like sales associates at Big W require a wide range of hours that may include evenings, weekends, holidays, overtime, and split shifts. Assure the interviewer that you can commit to a wide range of hours. If there is anything in your schedule that may hinder your availability, be sure to address this.

"I am happy to offer a flexible schedule and to work overtime as needed. I do take an evening college course on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I would not be available those days after 5 PM."

I have full availability to work evenings, weekends, daytimes, and all holidays, including school holidays and, of course, Christmas/New Year. I am happy to do overtime and to cover for team-mates who are sick or unable to work.
