Anyone have any good strategies for taking interviews for other firms while maintaining your travel schedule and demanding meeting schedule? Sneaking around can get exhausting and feel sketchy

Request Friday interviews. Block off your time. Expect to have a busier day so you aren’t slacking on your current responsibilities.

If you are feeling like it’s unethical, allocate PTO.

Tell the recruiter you travel for work so phone interviews are easier. I have been hired for 3 out of 4 jobs in my professional career sight unseen because of geographical challenges. A lot of recruiters and companies are more open to it than you think. As far as your current job, just say you have an appointment. It isn't a lie, and it isn't any of their business as long as you are meeting all your client responsibilities.

It’s a 4 year degree and under this I have my High School equivalent with the years I attended there. The education wasn’t mentioned in the interviews. Continued below.

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?
