Job Interview Questions: When to mention an upcoming vacation in a job interview?

If I have a job interview sometime this month and my family and I are planning on taking short vacation sometime in July or August, when would I mention that? Towards the end when they ask me if I have any questions?

Recommended Answer:
The proper time to bring up travel plans is after you have a job offer. You can then negotiate time off as part of the package. It may be important to the company that you're able to work on those particular days, and if you have to give up the vacation, you might be able to negotiate more favorable terms in other pieces of your employment package (more days off, higher salary, etc.).

Don't bring up your travel plans until after your offer. If it is a competitive position, it may be the one thing that puts another candidate ahead of you.

Good luck!
