Every applicant wants to score points in the interview.
But do job seekers gamble away sympathy points when they ask about the vacation days?
Whether or not a job is an option for applicants depends not least on the vacation days granted.
After all, it is particularly important for travel fans, mothers and fathers whether the leisure time compensation is 20 or 30 days off a year.
But don't applicants automatically shoot themselves out with this question *?
In fact, it is a thorn in the side of many bosses when a hopeful candidate finds out about his vacation in the first conversation.
"This question shows me that you are already thinking about taking a break,"
confirms Ed Mitzen, founder of the American company Fingerpaint-Marketing, to the career portal Business Insider.
"We want workhorses who strengthen our company, not those who think of a beach vacation from day one."
