I recently applied for a different role in my finance department and I heard through the grapevine that they are holding interviews this week. I booked a lot of days off work this week and did so a month in advance before I applied for the job.
I am really hoping they don't ask me to come in TUE, WED OR FRIDAY this week for an interview as I have those days booked off already!
What would you say in such a situation? Would you just come in for the interview and accept it despite it being a holiday booked off, or would you ask them if they could reschedule it as you have holiday plans booked?
I am thinking if they do say come to an interview on my day off I am just going to have to come in :(

I think it depends on how much you want the job. I would go in for the interview.

If I have holiday plans for those days, I'd ask the interviewer if he/she could reschedule it. If the interview can't be rescheduled, then I have to weigh my options.
If I really like the job and I have a high chance of being hired for the position, then I'll attend the interview. Otherwise, no.

You're the one applying for the job and it might be a minus factor if you asked for re-scheduling. It should be at their convenience, not yours.
