Need Advice: Interview Tomorrow but 90 Days Onsite Requirement
Hey everyone, I have a job interview with Honeywell tomorrow, but I’m feeling stuck. The recruiter just sent me the job description, and I realized it says 100% onsite for the first 90 days. That’s a huge issue for me.
I’m a single mom with only half-day daycare for my son, and commuting into DC is rough. I usually drop him off around 8:20 AM, so if the job starts at 8 or 9 (which I assume it does), I’ll be constantly stressed about getting there on time. After the 90 days, it shifts to a hybrid schedule—ideally, I’d want three days at home, but it’s unclear how many remote days they offer.
Should I cancel the interview and be upfront about my schedule limitations? Or should I ask if there’s any flexibility to reduce the onsite requirement to something manageable, like 1-2 days a week? I know people might think I’m being picky in this job market, but I have to find something that works for me and my son.
Any advice is appreciated—thanks!
