<prompt> Human: After I graduate I will need the money that I can get from a job but I would also like to take a couple weeks to myself. If I get a job offer and they tell me the start date is X how likely is it they are gong to be willing to wait a couple weeks especially if it is a government job? What would be the best way to negotiate this?  <response>: Most jobs will give you at least 2 weeks, and it should be pretty easy to negotiate for a month off or even longer with your first job out of college.Good luck.
