The staffing expectations at Kelloggs largely depends on the department you'll be working in. If you're working in production or delivery, you will most likely be required to do shift work, possibly working on weekends. If you work in the corporate office, you may be salary, which often means working long hours. If your research on the position yielded no results, and you're not sure what to expect from the schedule, now is the time to ask!

"The only restriction that I currently have on my schedule is Thursday evenings as I take my son to tutoring those evenings. Other than this, I am flexible with my availability. Having a family, I do ask for reasonable notice to schedule changes."

In the past 4 years, I don't remember a time when I was not contacted during a vacation to fix an issue. Not just during vacations, but weekends too, occasionally. Although I am not contractually obligated to work overtime, after hours, on weekends, and on vacations, I feel it is my moral obligation to do so. As a Database Engineer who is responsible for all the data in the company, I have a sense of responsibility toward my work. So to answer your question, Yes, I am flexible to work any schedule, as long as it is reasonable.
