Its a genuine ask...Tell them you have served your notice period in the previous company without a single day off and you are tired, tell them you need a small break to refresh yourself before joining...

In my experience they won't agree for it and ask you to join and take unpaid leaves for two weeks or less.

Best of luck 🙂

I wanted to share that I am in my first job as ui/ux expert and I am the only ux/ui person in the team. I am expected to take care of entire research and design of the product.
