| Dec 12, 2019 at 12:19 | comment | added | Player One | @Lou Yea some situations are different. In general I think "my key worry is wasting mine or the interviewer's time" is an attitude that can only hurt you. You're good at your job. Get out there and tell people why you're good. | |

| Dec 12, 2019 at 11:57 | comment | added | Lou | I understand your point - my key worry is wasting mine or the interviewer's time by getting through an interview before realising I'm inherently unsuitable based on my availability. I guess this problem becomes mitigated when I have more availability, but until then maybe I should write it on my cover letter ... | |
