As a Fraud Investigator, you may need to work weekends during an investigation. The interviewer wants to see if you are available to work weekends when required to determine whether you are flexible and will be a team player if hired.

If you have no outside obligations that prohibit you from working weekends, let the interviewer know you understand the job requirements and that working weekends will not be an issue. If you have an obligation that will keep you from working weekends, describe what that obligation is so the interviewer can determine if they can work around your schedule.

Avoid saying you cannot work weekends without explaining why. Suppose you have an obligation, such as a course you take on the weekends or taking care of a child or other family member. In that case, the interviewer may understand your situation and work your schedule not to include weekends.

"No, nothing would keep me from working weekends when needed. I understand this profession and know that working weekends is necessary when conducting an investigation and interviewing witnesses and suspects."
