A Proactive Employer's Recruiting Schedule

Workamper News

Abstract:

Workampers like to plan ahead, so begin recruiting 6 months prior to the start date of your job(s). Based on feedback from our Employer members, here are our recommendations. There is no guarantee these schedules will work perfectly as there are many variables, but Employers that are proactive and make a plan more often have an easier recruiting experience.

If you need Workampers for the SUMMER (jobs starting in April/May), begin your recruiting & advertising efforts in OCTOBER/NOVEMBER or no later than early January.

If you need Workampers for the FALL/WINTER (jobs starting in late Sept/Oct), begin your recruiting & advertising efforts in APRIL/MAY or no later than early June.
