The tourist business relies heavily on seasonality. Seasonal job refers to part-time or temporary occupations that serve company demands during specific times of the year. Seasonal employees work for a limited time.

Seasonal work happens when work needs grow or when a job role is only required briefly. For example, during the summer, when visitors are most likely to visit, hotel resorts may only require lifeguards on a regular basis.

• Summer employment deadlines might be set early because employers want employees to be ready to start as soon as possible, so apply as early as possible in the spring. Seasonal summer employment might help you learn new skills, vacation overseas, or just save money.
• Because demand varies throughout the year, winter seasonal employment differ from summer seasonal ones. Seasonal occupations in the winter may often begin as early as September and end as late as mid-February.

While seasonal jobs are only temporary, you are more likely to advance to a full-time position if you do a good job, as is the case with any employment with the potential for advancement.
