Part Time and Seasonal Employment: Temporary Jobs

As the holiday season arrives it brings with it more of everything; more days off (for those with 9 to 5s), more purchases (for those shopping for presents), more shipments, and for major retailers: more hiring. What does this mean for you?

Seasonal Jobs to Permanent Employment

You may be thinking: Same day pay jobs are great, but what about long term employment? Job seekers should note that after your stint with an employment agency some seasonal slots become permanent roles. In 2015 Amazon said that more than 14,000 of its temporary positions became permanent after the holidays, and this year it expects that number to increase.
