"Understanding things move quickly; I am flexible and adaptable to work around your availability. What day and time do you have in mind?"
Marketing
"I am so happy that you asked! I have a flexible schedule and often work from my home office. What day and time do you have in mind? I will make it work."
Retail
"I am available in different pockets of time, depending on the day. I do have Thursday off entirely and greatly look forward to a second interview."
Sales
"I can make myself available, given a bit of notice. If it is an in-person interview, I'd need to take a half day, so would need a day to put in that request. I'm eager to move on to the next round, so please let me know as soon as possible so that I can make it happen."
Teacher
"Since we likely work the same hours, I would need to take a half day off, and find a substitute. Can we set a date now so that I can get started on the requested time off?"
