Retail jobs like a sales associate position at Bunnings Warehouse require a wide range of hours that may include evenings, weekends, holidays, overtime, rotating shifts, and split shifts. The interviewer is gauging your overall flexibility and expectations. Best to be honest. If you have other priorities or demands on your time that limit your flexibility in this regard, then it is worth clarifying this now. It is better for both an employee and an employer to learn that the job isn't a good fit earlier rather than later. Otherwise, assure the interviewer that you can commit to a wide range of hours.

Happy to work anytime and overtime as required, but I need to mention that I have a prior commitment to the care of my daughters over the March and Easter long weekends. That being said, I am open to doing early shifts over theses weekends as the girls are late sleepers, so they won't require my supervision.

Rachelle's Feedback

Very good! You offer up important specifics, which also shows the interviewer that you are excellent with thinking ahead.

Anonymous Answer

I am open to working on weekends and holidays but it would be great if I get prior notice of working on long weekends, so that I can plan accordingly.

Cindy's Feedback

Ok, good. There is certainly nothing wrong with expressing your desire for notice. However, you may want to approach this, at least in the interview, by asking how the company assigns weekend or holiday work.

"Yes, I am very flexible and can make myself available on weekends and holidays. How is weekend or holiday work assigned? Is there a rotation? How much-advanced notice is provided?"
