That vacation in week increments is total bullshite.

Most banks have this policy. It's a way to prevent theft and fraud as if someone has some elaborate scheme, it will sometimes expose itself with that person being gone for a week. It is absolutely non-negotiable with a lot of banks.

In my experience with vacation negotiations, there is some flexibility on how many days you start with if you start mid-year somewhere, but future years is pretty rigid. Unless you're interviewing for upper management/executive level. Really depends on the industry, company, and size of the company.
