How Can I Persuade a Company to Switch from Alternate Saturdays to a 5-Day Workweek?

Hetal Maroliwala
Dear Friends, I'm planning to go for an interview, and this company offers an alternate Saturday off. I want to convince them to offer a 5-day working week. I'm unable to understand how to make this happen. It is a good recycling company. Please drop your comments.

Hi, When a company follows an alternate Saturday off policy, they may not treat your case as an exception. However, there is nothing wrong with sharing your expectation of a 5-day work week. By the way, if the company is good, why wouldn't you consider compromising?

Since the company is in the recycling business, it makes sense to have more working days, and the work-from-home option is not available. The company providing two Saturdays off is a relaxation in itself, and seeking more of them may not be appreciated.
