I've been a SAHM for 2 and a half years and have DD (2 and half) and DS (11 months). I'm starting to look for work again but would like to do 3 days. DH works FT.
I've seen a job I would love, great longterm role, decent money (for the charity sector), ok commute .... but it's full time. The same role for the same organisation in a different location was advertised recently as fulltime but had 'would consider parttime' on the advert. This advert doesn't mention parttime though.
Should I apply and mention my preference for part time straight away?
Should I see if I get offered an interview and then tell them my preference is 3 days and would they consider a jobshare or parttime post?
Should I wait until I'm their preferred candidate and then see if they could be flexible?
I don't want to annoy them or waste their time, but I don't want to be thrown out immediately if I might suit them .....
Thoughts!!??!!
