[quote=Anonymous]I have been working part-time since my kids were born 5 years ago. I have a job interview this week for a full-time job- my first since having kids. I am ready to work full time again and think the job is a good fit for me and I will have great childcare, but I also know that I will not be able to work exactly like I did pre-kids- staying late at a moment's notice, hardly ever taking sick leave, scheduling my vacation when it's most convenient for the job and not around school holidays, etc. Since this is my first interview post-kids, I wonder how to ask about or gauge these intangible aspects of the job. Of course I want to talk about how I'm great for the job during the interview, and not how I want to take a bunch of leave. So how do parents go about judging the family-friendliness of a job? What can/should you ask, or do you just try to get a feeling for the culture during the interview? Any advice is appreciated![/quote]
