More Seasonal Work Available This Year
The number of seasonal jobs being offered on the popular CV-Online job portal has increased by a third compared to this time last year and currently stands at around 50.
The majority of the seasonal vacancies are in the service sector, where people are being sought to work in shops and restaurants during the busy summer period. In addition, a number of businesses are looking for workers to cover gaps left by vacationing employees and there are also a number of positionss suitable for young people, ETV reported.
According to Heikko Gross, the job portal's marketing manager, the number of seasonal vacancies is even higher than the above-mentioned figure, as some companies have posted only one job offer on the website although they are seeking people to fill multiple positions.
Examples of these are the Hesburger fast food chain, ferry operator Tallink and the Bauhof building store, said Gross.
The overall number of job offers listed on the website has also grown by a third over the year, currently standing at about 11,500.
