QUESTION 9 OF 35

We run a variety of shifts at DHL Logistics since our business is a 24/7 operation. Do you have a preferred shift?

The interviewer wants to know your availability and what kind of restrictions you have on your schedule. Additionally, if you have any obligations or dates you require off in the future, this is an excellent opportunity to reveal this. Depending on the position you are applying for, there may be a high demand for less desirable shifts or expectations for putting in overtime or weekend hours or on-call coverage when experiencing staff shortages. With this question, they are gauging your overall flexibility and expectations for what the role entails. It is best to be honest.

"I am more than willing to be a flexible employee for DHL Logistics. Currently, I do not have many restrictions on my availability except Tuesday evenings."

"For my family and personal life, I prefer to work the afternoon shift. This shift allows me to get my kids to school, and my husband picks them up after school. We try to stagger our hours to accommodate our children's needs."
