How Do Yall Look For Jobs/Go On Interviews Working 1st Shift??

[PhonZhi]

im desperately seeking to change jobs but its hard to look working these hours M-F. went on an interview last week and had to make up a lie saying i had a Dr. appointment. i hate taking days off but if i get another interview opportunity ima have to do the same thing ive worked mostly 3rd shift or swing type shifts mostly in my life so ive never had this problem before.

arent you able to put in a vacation day, a personal day or make up the time by staying late or coming in early

Its not supposed to be "easy" to do.

Good luck.

If you really want that change, you'll find time to get it done.

I once used the excuse that I had a repair person coming to the house to fix washer/dryer and of course the repair place gave me an range time of 8am - 12pm or 1pm - 5pm. Depends of course on the time of the interview.

last time I was looking for a job, I would go at lunch time, or there was a day I started at 11, so I'd schedule all my interviews for before 11am on wednesdays only. the next time I was looking for a job, I worked at home on wednesdays, so I'd schedule all my interviews for a wednesday. this way I'd NEVER have to waste vacation time interviewing for a job. with this work at home job I got now, if I wanted to find another job, I could basically go for an interview any time I'd like given I don't have a conference or something else pressing to do.

I have also been able to schedule a few interviews on either a weekend or after 5 pm. but that's a rarity. depends on how much they wanna hire u.

Don't quit your current job. I would make up something and just ask for N extended lunch break. Some employers were willing to work with me knowing I was currently working.

The worse ones are when the job is in your city, but the company's HQ is like 40 miles away and that's where all the interviews take place.

I just go on my lunch break, then come back.

"I hate taking days off"

WTF? What does that mean?

You gotta play sick or say some emergency came up, but you can only do this once or twice so make sure the job counts.
