  • While interviewing you for a job, hiring manager managers will often inquire about your willingness to work overtime.
    Your attitude matters more than anything else to answer this question.
    However, if you are someone who is not willing to work overtime at all, you should briefly explain the reason instead of bluntly saying "No".

    I used to work from 8.30am to 9 in the evening and was underpaid. No overtime was given. I would never signup for such a job again... 😵‍💫 Before resigning I talked to the management constantly as a result of which more people got hired and work was balanced. Not all overtime jobs will prove your dedication!!

    "I want a job with good work life balance as I need time for family, chores and recreation. But I'm willing to work extended hours if there is a necessity" - This makes the interviewer realise that your time is invaluable. And they will actually appreciate the extra hours you put in.

    As an HR professional, I would strongly recommend not to blindly say yes to such questions. It is okay to be curious about these things, it's human nature. Saying yes without question may sound like you are agreeing just to get the job. Also, when you simply say yes, and decline to adhere to it later, the company can use it against you as an ammunition during tough times.

    @Glblub 3 місяці тому +1

    Your answer holds true when one is being hired for a new company
    Once a candidate is in the company the answer obviously changes to pay and it should. Manipulation is the key which gets you through I guess then 😊

  • @vivbrowne3389
    @vivbrowne3389 Місяць тому

    There's always a "good reason" for it according to an employer, so agreeing to it would be like saying Yes, I'm willing to be a pushover as often as needed (which is probably 4 days out of 5 in a week, if not all 5).
    My reply would be, I take complete ownership for my work, so Yes, I definitely would when I need to, taking account of my personal priorities and what my deadline is like.

    If a company asks you this that means surely they are lacking resources to work and will make you do overtime surely. I used to work for one of the big4 and the work sucks never make this mistake of accepting anything I was a fresh graduate and they had asked I said I am ok working if something comes up but let me tell you these firms seriously i had worked for more than 18-20 hours a day too that too for a prolonged period of time. Now i regularly suffer back pain and neck pain too I visit chiropractor for some relief but i guess now what i am spending on that and my health i tossed isnt even worth 😢
