I would suggest that someone who will say yes to working on a day off is desperate and I would wonder why.

If you want professional aircrew then you have to treat them like professionals.

If the question was "are you willing to be occasionally flexible if we need you to work a day off in exchange for a day or two in lieu sometime else?", then the answer is hell yes.

Why would you expect anybody to work beyond their contract for no recompense?
I would certainly not work for an employer who expected that sort of behaviour.
At interview I think that would be the point at which I say "thank you but no thanks."
If an employer is asking that sort of thing before a contract is signed, I can only imagine what sort of thing they will try to pull once they have you on board.

It's no wonder Ts&Cs are going down the pan!
