My workday usually kicks off bright and early, around 7:30 or 8am, and wraps up by 5pm, although this can vary based on my workload. I'm currently on a hybrid schedule, which means I enjoy the comfort of working from home on Mondays and Fridays, while Tuesdays through Thursdays find me in the office. This mix is really great as it provides a dynamic balance, allowing me to enjoy the best of both worlds - the office and home.

My day usually kicks off at 8 in the morning and wraps up around 5 in the evening. However, it's important to remember that this can fluctuate greatly based on the nature of your job or career. Different industries and roles can have varying schedules. Some of my workdays are more packed than others, which might require me to extend beyond 5pm or get a head start before 8am. My role is a blend of office and remote work, with the team typically gathering in the office thrice a week. Mondays and Fridays are usually reserved for working from the comfort of home.

I work as a Financial Analyst and my hours are the pretty standard 8:30-5. Obviously some days this is shorter and others its longer depending on the flow of work, and this will vary depending on your manager and job. However, work life balance is very important and if that is something you prioritize I would recommend trying to find a place that allows solid flexibility. Anything above 50 hours a week becomes difficult especially long term. Try and find what hours are prior to taking a job.
I will add it is very important to find something you truly enjoy and like the people you work with. You will be spending lots of time at work around these people so it is worth the extra effort to find something you like.

My usual work schedule is from 8 am to 5 pm, with a lunch break between 12 pm and 1 pm. I spend Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays in the office, and the remaining days I work comfortably from my home. The adaptability of this hybrid work setup has given me the best of both worlds. I can collaborate effectively with my team when I'm in the office, and also relish the peace and comfort of working from home.

Hi Robert! I am a corporate accountant and my hours are 8 AM to 5 PM. I take a one hour lunch break so I end up working about 8 hours a day. Accountants have busy times so about once a month I might need to work a longer, 12 hour day.

Hi Robert!
Just like the changing seasons, my work schedule shifts every six months. I've experienced the hustle of the day and the calm of the night, molding my life to suit both rhythms. I put in a solid 40 hours each week, and when my two days off roll around, I fully unplug from work. It's crucial to create and maintain a healthy work-life equilibrium. Remember, most companies will request you to align your working hours and days with their operational needs. It's all part of the journey, so let's embrace it with positivity!

Hello Robert,
I am currently employed in a pre-sales position where my primary responsibility is to offer technical advice to our clients. This role encompasses a diverse range of tasks, including conducting remote calls, participating in face-to-face meetings, and making visits to client locations. Owing to the multifaceted nature of my job, the working hours fluctuate quite a bit, yet they consistently average around the 40-hour per week benchmark.
One aspect of my job that I particularly appreciate is the flexibility of these hours. They are not strictly confined to the conventional 9-5 schedule. My availability is primarily dictated by the needs of my customers and sales colleagues. Whenever they require a meeting, I ensure I am accessible. Aside from these commitments, I enjoy a high degree of flexibility in managing my time.

I just started working full time in consulting, so it will depend on your role, industry, and company culture. However, I usually have early morning meetings with international teams and most of my meetings end around noon. After that, I can continue working on my tasks till about 4-5PM. Some days it goes on longer, but I have more of a mid-day break. Some days the day ends early.
Most companies these days want you working the 8 hours, but do not care which time of day you do those 8 hours, as long as you attend meetings, are responsive, and complete assignments on time.

On a normal week I work 40 hours during normal business hours as a telecommunications engineer. As a tech professional you may be required to work outside of normal business hours based upon your responsibilities as some work must be done at night or even on weekends. You may even have to work more than the typical 40 hours to meet deadlines on a project or if there is an emergency that needs to be addressed. The important thing is to find work that you find enjoyable and fulfilling so that you are okay with your responsibilities and work hours. But remember there is no perfect job and there may be some aspects that you find less enjoyable.

I begin my day at 6 am, embarking on a routine that includes tending to household chores and a rejuvenating 45-minute morning walk. After refreshing myself, I indulge in a nutritious breakfast and head to the office by 9:30 am. While my work hours are generally flexible, adhering to a minimum of 8 hours a day, the nature of the projects often influences the time I spend at the office. During critical phases with looming project deadlines, I willingly extend my working hours, ensuring that the total doesn't surpass 11 hours. Engaging with communities in the field brings about a different dynamic, often leading to extended work hours to foster meaningful interactions. Despite these variations, I strive to strike a balance between dedication to my responsibilities and the pursuit of personal interests.

I consider myself extremely lucky to have found a career in sales that offers a significant amount of flexibility with my schedule. This has been a tremendous benefit in balancing the various roles in my life, especially as a father of two young girls. If you're part of a good sales team, you'll likely enjoy a lot of flexibility as long as you're meeting your targets. My work hours can vary greatly, ranging from 20 to 50 hours a week, but the beauty of it is that I have control over this. Maintaining a balance between work and personal life is crucial for overall life satisfaction. I work remotely, generally starting my day at 9 and finishing by 5. While there are occasions when I need to travel or attend external meetings, I feel incredibly fortunate with the overall work hours I have.

Like many answers it can depend on a lot of factors, the industry you choose, the role you choose, the needs of the organization. Currently I work from home Monday and Friday usually from 7:30-5:30 sometimes shorter sometimes longer depending on what I need to get done, personal appointments etc. I have a lot of freedom to set my hours as long as I am delivering. Over my career in IT though I have worked 1st shift, 3rd shift, been in a support team that had on-call responsibilities (which sometimes led to 70-80 hour weeks. I know others that have different schedules, 12 hour shifts in an ER, firefighters that work 24 hours on 48 hrs. off. In short, it depends you have to understand what the hours ask is of you and if they seem really good what are the other aspects to consider and if the seem a little more taxing, what are the advantages that may offset these and this in not limited to money.
I have been in my organization for almost 32 years and while sometimes the hours were taxing and I may be able to earn more in New York or Philadelphia I have a 10 minute commute, great benefits and a lot of flexibility. In 32 years I was able to coach Lacrosse for all 3 of my kids, never missed a class play, orchestra concert, sporting event. These things were very important to me so offset the potential for getting called at 2 in the morning.
You need to understand the full picture and weigh what is important to you and understand that will change as you grow and your life changes.
Good Luck to you!

I follow a hybrid work schedule, dividing my time between the office and home. For two days a week, I'm present in the office, working from 7:30 in the morning until 4:30 in the afternoon, adhering strictly to these hours.
On the other three days when I work from home, I have the flexibility to adjust my working hours. This is possible because I save over an hour which I would otherwise spend commuting. I can organize my work schedule around personal appointments or responsibilities related to child care.
I usually start my day earlier than most because my team is spread across India and London. I make a conscious effort to align my working hours with theirs to ensure smooth collaboration.

Robert, thanks for your question. I will do my best to give you a complete answer and apologize for long answer. When I first started my career, I believed that long hours were key to providing top-notch service to clients. However, I soon realized that productivity isn't about the number of hours worked, but the quality of results achieved in that time.
Working in Management Consulting, I learned that meeting client expectations didn't mean working longer hours. By focusing on their specific needs, I found I could deliver excellent results in under 6 hours a day. I've learned that people typically contribute about 5 hours of truly productive work each day, with the rest often taken up by meetings and discussions that may not be as productive as we'd like.
Now, my role involves tackling some of my clients' most complex challenges. I'm known as a fixer, someone who can handle tough situations and have the difficult conversations needed to bring people together. Even though I still work 10-12 hours a day, it's because of the urgency required by client deadlines. When planning your daily routine, it's essential to figure out what it really takes to navigate the day efficiently, whether you're working alone or as part of a team.
In the fast-paced world of consulting, teamwork is key. Relying on collaboration helps complete tasks quickly, meeting client expectations. Balancing personal productivity with effective teamwork is a fundamental part of my strategy, highlighting the importance of delivering significant results over simply working long hours.
I hope this answers your question, Robert. I'm sorry if it was a bit long-winded.

Hi Robert,
I'm usually at my desk, ready to start the day, by 7:45AM, even though my official work hours are from 8:00AM to 5:00PM. This early arrival gives me the chance to turn on my computer, go through any new emails, and prepare for the day ahead. I find that these little proactive measures can go a long way in gaining recognition and advancing in the workplace.
Even though I have the option to work from home on Mondays and Fridays, I generally choose to be at the office. This allows me to connect with my coworkers and engage with our company's leaders. I also make sure to attend after-work events and networking opportunities, as they are an enjoyable way to expand my professional connections. I firmly believe that being physically present in the workplace is a key element in building a strong personal brand.

The hours I work are not fixed and can change. Once you've started your professional career, it's not common to have a rigid 9-5 schedule. The hours you work greatly depend on your specific job role and the expectations set by your manager. Another factor that influences your work hours is whether you receive a salary or are paid hourly. In my case, I receive a salary, which means my work isn't directly linked to the number of hours I put in.

Hello Robert,
My day usually starts in the early hours of the morning after midnight when I check my emails and answer students' questions at Career Village this website for volunteers. I write computer programs, authoring software with Visual Studio 2017. My current project is a nutrition education compilation which I have been working on since 1994.
In 1982 I finished studying for a postgraduate diploma in Ortho Molecular Nutrition as recommended to me by the famous Queensland medical practitioner Lady Doctor Phyllis Cilento of "Medical Mother" Terminology fame. What is orthomolecular nutrition? 'Ortho' means 'correct' and 'molecular' refers to chemical moieties, be they God-made or man-made. I assume that God-made molecules are far superior to the man-made molecules that are routinely used in disease prophylaxis.
To promote my software I make videos and screen captures of the program Diet Wizard, and post them on YouTube Studio ~
https://www.youtube.com/user/yimi90125/videos?app=desktop Around about 1980 to 1981 I was doing 4th year postgraduate biochemistry at the University of Queensland and I earned a little bit of money tutoring students. That was medical biochemistry and I taught second-year medical students and first-year dentistry students just plain chemistry. I was married to my first wife who was a dental therapist.
I became a dietitian nutritionist in 1988 and started working in the Australian country areas Outback where there were not many therapists I addressed the rural town of Dubbo New South Wales first. Then I had three years of private practice in Brisbane. After that, I worked in WA at Port Hedland on the Aboriginal nutrition program. Finally, I completed nine years with Queensland Health as a visiting contractor Outback Dietitian.
I work approximately 100 hours per week which is two point five full time equivalents. I also assist Doctor David Hannaford in his pet project, involving the nutrition of homeless people primarily in Los Angeles and New York in the US. David commissioned me to create a emergency nutritional rescue formula for refugees and people who are starving which incidentally is almost a billion people.
So I do not get much spare time. Idle hands? Not me.
