How can you apply for a job when you work 9 to 5, Monday to Friday?
I'm mainly thinking about attending interviews.
I've starting a temp job last week, which is for about 3 months. No leave can be granted, due to being the busiest time of the year, (working in the ISA dept of a bank), and calling in sick is not something I really want to do.
Anyone got any suggestions? |

Simply put your current working hours on your application, if they want you they can interview in a lunch break or over the phone before or after work etc. They will appreciate you not ducking work to go to interviews. |

They don't have to give you time off for interviews, although if you're on a temp contract they may be slightly more understanding, but they do have to allow you time for medical appointments, doctors etc, although without pay obviously. |

Well being a temp job I would expect you to be able to go for job interviews ., as long as u give a time that you need to be out I really don't think they can stop you . I maybe hugely wrong but I am sure they should understand . Good luck xxx  |

Try n arrange outwith your current working hours but if that's not possible Just tell them you have a personal appointment,as long as you give as much notice as you can they might not be happy but fuck em.....thought we were past the 'workhouse/slave' practices of old!
Just get them told! |
