Are you available to work overtime, evenings, and weekends?
The hours you would be expected to work at The Kraft Heinz Company largely depend on which department you'll work in. It's typical when working in production or delivery to be required to perform shift work or work on weekends. In the corporate office, you may be salaried, which often translates to working longer hours. Perform your research on the role before your interview so you don't ask any clarifying questions you should already know and come across as ill-prepared. However, if it is still unclear, express that you performed exhaustive research and couldn't clarify those expectations on your own.
"I am excited about the opportunity to work for Kraft Foods, and I am available to work whatever hours are required to get the job done. Can you tell me more about what I can expect from the schedule? I am flexible, and I am comfortable with working long hours."
"The only restriction 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 ask for reasonable notice to schedule changes."

I’m flexible, but if there comes a high possibility that I’ll have to work overtime, can I get to know what I can expect from the schedule at least half a day before?

It's great to share your availability and discuss any potential barriers upfront. Your request is a reasonable ask, and fair to inquire about in the interview.
