Would you be willing to work over 40 hours a week?

Asking the right questions, and having a full understanding of expectations is very important. Offer some information on your availability, and then ask questions as needed. If you haven't had a chance to clarify scheduling needs, consider asking, 'What shifts are you looking to fill?' or, 'Do you require coverage for the evenings or weekends?'

If the employer expects you to work 10-12 hour days, it would be essential for you to know this information before you respond with, 'Absolutely! No problem!' You want to be sure that you can meet their expectations.

If it turns out the schedule won't work, think about what you can offer and see if you can meet in the middle. It's much better to discuss these things in an interview than for you to commit to a schedule that won't work for you.
