How much should I bend over backwards to schedule an interview?
A firm proposed only a couple dates for me to come in for a superday. Problem is, I don't have any time those days between other interviews, classes, and my part-time job. Only one of those days could potentially work, however I'd miss several classes and in all likelihood bomb the interview I would have right after it. Then, Thanksgiving break is coming up and I'll be out of town for a few days, so the superday would have to be pushed way back.
Will I get dinged for asking to push back the superday by a week?
@pr3167", those dates are set, as in, those are when the superday interviews are. If you are unable to make any of them, it certainly won't hurt to ask, but the bank will most likely respond that those are unfortunately set dates. I would personally skip classes in favor of interviews, but I am not familiar with you personally, so that's your call.
I believe it's an individual superday (maybe that's not called a super day then? I'm don't really know the terminology. It's basically just an all day interview),partially from the tone of the email and the fact that they asked about my available times on those dates. Would that change your opinion on it?
They will generally also have other candidates during that time
If you can absolutely not make any of those dates, then there is no harm in asking. If they ding you for asking, it won't really matter since you would not have made it anyway. Good luck. Unfortunately, things like this sometimes happen.
If you're going to query the date, do it by phone rather than by e-mail so that you can better communicate how much you really want to be there, just have logistics hassles etc. That's better than sending an e-mail which could be read in the wrong tone.
If the dates can't be moved, you should only bend over backwards as much as you want the job.
