PTO and sick days... &quot;dentist appointments&quot; etc.<p>I will say I stay away from companies that want you to do an extensive try out before there&#x27;s an offer in place.  I had a consulting gig that was like 20 hours of work to &quot;see how I solved problems&quot; I politely declined and told them I couldn&#x27;t do it without a consulting fee.<p>Also stay away from any jobs posted on HireArt, their whole process is to have you do a massive &quot;try out&quot; before you even get through the recruiter to the company.  Terrible process, massive waste of time.<p>Good luck in your search!
