Typically recruiting for summer work comes in two stages.

The first stage begins in late winter and lasts through the spring. The main advantages of employment in this period — the opportunity to pre-negotiate with the employer all the conditions to find a job in the period after the end of the contract, or plan future employment, if it provides for selected position.

Traditionally seasonal employment is considered work in construction, however, thanks to modern technology, the builders can continue their work even in the winter. The demand for builders in the summer is still high, compared to other seasons.

Enough high demand jobs of pickers of the fruit abroad. Wages for similar work in Ukraine is lower — for example, some employers offer 5 UAH. per kilo of strawberries collected. At the same time for the same job in Poland, you can obtain much higher profits — from 150 zł per day.

How much can you earn

Earnings in the periodic employment varies depending on the scope and proposals of the employer. So, if, for example, for seasonal work arranged a chef with a rate of 300-500 UAH per day, in many cases, the employer may, at its expense, to provide housing or meals.

In summer, employers often offer internships for students who plan to seek employment in the specialty. So, if a student wants to gain experience or to decide he wants to continue to work by profession, jobs in the summer — a great opportunity to produce “pluses” for a summary.

At the same time, according to the results of a search query on the website Rabota.ua the most well-paid seasonal jobs are positions abroad. For example, some foreign employers offer cost from 50 000 UAH. for a job as a maid, animator or handyman.

What to avoid

Usually the “cons” seasonal work I think:

  • usually heavy physical labor;
  • little time to rest due to high intensity;
  • the variability of the employer;
  • likely to fall for scams.

It should be remembered that the seasonal worker must sign a contract and so is entitled to all the social guarantees of the employee – sick leave, vacation, etc.

Note that before to conclude an agreement on temporary work should thoroughly review the document and make sure that the employer is willing to properly provide assurances on their part.

In turn, employers often face the problem of high turnover and are trying to solve this problem with the help of recruiting agencies.

“Seasonal work for low-skilled staff has a number of nuances — often long working hours, temporary clearance,” — said in comments TSN.ia recruiter company Smart Solutions Tamara Tamindarova.

As noted by the expert, sometimes workers get a job for 1-2 weeks to work same job abroad, only for a big salary.

“Sometimes it happens that employees lose motivation and refuse to work, sometimes just “disappear,” she added.

We will remind, earlier the Minister of social policy Andrei Reva said that abroad there are 3 million 200 thousand Ukrainians. At the same time, temporary migration, according to the Minister, is attended by up to 9 million Ukrainian citizens.
