QUESTION 18 OF 40

Are you able to work alternate shifts or pull call?

Feel free to use this question to your advantage to learn more about the position and schedule from the interviewer. If you were under the assumption by the job announcement that the position was for a day shift, then go ahead and ask. Don't rule the job out or yourself out if you can't pull call or work the night shift. This question could be to tick a box to see if you'd be willing to in the future. Make sure to be honest with your interviewer about your availability.

"I am able to work alternate shifts and pull call; I'd just need a week's notice to change my schedule a bit. How is the schedule rotated between current staff at this time?"

"I am very open to alternate shifts and being on call for this position. However, having an active young child, I would find it very important to know my work schedule ahead of time. Can you expand on how the scheduling works for this position?"

"Currently, I work a schedule rotation between AM and PM shifts. We work two weeks of days and then two weeks of PMs on a rotation, and every fourth weekend, I am on call. This schedule works perfectly for me, and I am open to continuing the same if it is offered in this position."
