As I'm currently working full time and interviewing with 2 firms at the same time, I have ran into a situation where I need to take “at least one half day off” per week. I try to avoid taking case interviews during the middle of my work. Could you please show some thoughts on how to communicate reasons of taking days off so frequently?
My current thought is to try to arrange 1 interview per week in the morning, so that I can take a half day off every week to complete all 4 case interviews at the 2 firms. Regarding the reasoning, the only reason I can think of is due to “medical reasons”. As my boss is a westerner, due to cultural differences I'm also wondering the “level of depth” of this medical reason I should explain to my boss. What's the right balance of giving a reasonable excuse of frequent days off and not over-explaining too much to a westerner?
Appreciate the advice!
