First Job: Part-Time and Keep Looking for a Full-Time


Recommended Posts

So ultimately I want a full-time job, but I have been looking for about 1 or 2 months for a full-time position in Southern California and haven't gotten any full-time offers. I got a per diem offer, but would like to get some advice on what to do or say if I got an offer for full-time in the next few months. I would feel bad if I left the per diem job within 6 months, but am not sure what employers typically expect in this situation.

Having experience (no matter how little), makes you much more marketable. Also, if you do get a full time offer, that doesn't mean that you need to leave the per diem job, you can still pick up a shift here or there. I also know of a few places that like to 'try' people out before a full commitment to a FT position, or they may know that a position may be opening up soon and want to start getting someone trained. Not much to lose at this point, since you haven't found anything else.
