Dealbreaker

So I'm returning to my previous job and I asked if I could have my 3 weeks vacation again. The HR person then asked me if that was a dealbreaker. That kinda threw me off, so I just said no. Of course, they turned down the request. What's the best way to answer that question without giving a yes/no?

I would suggest trying to have justification when making requests like that.

Just be diplomatic. If they're offering less vacation than what you currently have, ask if they would be willing to match that.

That's a tough question Jill. I would probably say that it is something you will consider when making your decision.
