Archived Seasonal hours?

[MSHLR]

I am seasonal flow tm and just got hired last week (orientation this sunday).

Do seasonal hires usually get a lot of hours or mostly part time?

It probably depends a lot on your availability. Next week will be my first full week and I'm scheduled for 42.5 hours. That might be a little higher than normal because of the holidays, but I told them during my interview that I could work part or full time so I think they're going to give me full time hours.

Be wary of the full-time hours....if you end up getting hired in then the hours will, more than likely, go down by 20 hours.

I actually only want to work part time. I unexpectedly received a nice promotion at my full time job so I only want to work part time for Target seasonal only. I have heard some seasonal hires have received more than the expected hours and is wondering if thats the norm.

I am on flow team, if it makes any difference when it comes to hours. My set time is from 4 am to 9 am which works out perfectly. They will not add more hours onto it, would they?

Those hours are good for you. They seem to be set.

My flow team was only scheduled in 5 hour shifts. That was all the hours I had. Now I would normally ask it they could work an extra 30 minutes to avoid a lunch or sometimes 8 hours if it was a big truck but they could always say they couldn't stay. The only time we scheduled them longer was on black friday or if we took a double truck and then they were scheduled for 7 hours and we started about 2am. Otherwise most of my team started at 4, 4:30 and 5 and all had 5 hour shifts. Those that wanted extra hours could usually find them by staying later for me or learning other work centers.
