Agreeing your holiday with your manager

Role-play: you ask for leave on particular dates and agree how the work is covered (Godišnji odmor).

Who you talk to

Sonja (hiring manager)
Sonja runs a small team and does her own interviewing. She is to the point, listens closely and dislikes rehearsed answers: she asks about specific problems you have actually solved. Warm with foreigners and happy to rephrase a question.

What you need to do

  1. Say when you want to take leave and give the dates.
  2. Briefly explain why those dates.
  3. Offer a handover: what you will finish and who will cover.
  4. The complication: a colleague is already off then. Offer to shift or split the dates.
  5. Ask how to file the request, and say thank you.
