Need a gig for a few months? Try something seasonal, like being a lifeguard, shoveling snow or working at a retailer during the holidays. Employers typically staff up a month or two before their busy season, so plan ahead to get on their payroll. Check storefront windows, Craigslist and local classifieds for seasonal opportunities.
Total time: Varies by job. Setup: Job searches and interviews can take weeks. How easy to start: Not difficult, particularly if you have skills that fit your market. Age threshold: Minimum age depends on the job. Payment speed: Varies by company.
Allow time for interviews, which can take a few weeks.
Companies start hiring for seasonal jobs a month or two in advance.
Unlike other side gigs, seasonal jobs often operate on a traditional payroll system. That means it may take a month from your start date to earn your first full paycheck.
But you can expect a regular paycheck, with payroll taxes already withheld, which is something other side gigs don't offer.
It depends on the specific job, which could include being a minimum age, having a driver’s license, etc.
