Employment Search Information

Part-time employment is one of the fastest-growing forms of employment in the US today.  People are working several part-time jobs at a time, while other people just have one part-time job and spend the rest of their time in school or at home with their families.  Part-time employment means that the employer only has to have that employee at their job for 35 hours of less each week.  Full-time employment is generally considered between 35 and 40 hours or more each week.

Seasonal employment is also popular.  The most popular time for seasonal employment in the US is during the winter holidays like Hanukah and Christmas.  Seasonal employees are generally hired in September.  They begin in October and finish their employment period in January.  They often work full-time (meaning over 35 hours a week) during this time period, but are not considered full-time employees because they are only there for the season.
