"Best 10 Seasonal Jobs"

A seasonal job is a short-term position offered by a company that needs extra support over a busy period. A role of this kind is usually part-time and temporary -- rarely leading to a permanent position straight after.

Typically, seasonal jobs are associated with the holiday season and retail. Shops cope with an intense period of activity in the run-up to Christmas by hiring temporary staff, who are fully aware that their contract will end in the New Year.

Jobs of this kind are also common in the hospitality and tourism sectors. Restaurants, bars and cafes that close (or are extremely quiet) when the tourists leave cannot keep staff on all year round. Instead, they recruit for the busy season to cope with an influx of visitors.

A busy period for businesses in the sectors mentioned above has a knock-on effect on a wide range of other types of businesses, meaning seasonal workers are often required in non-customer facing organizations requiring staff temporarily.

Seasonal jobs can be a fantastic way to get some extra cash, broaden your knowledge, develop your skills and improve your resume.
