Seasonal & Casual Opportunities:
Applications for seasonal and casual employment may be submitted at any time of the year. Submitted applications are reviewed by the departments considering hiring. An application is valid from date of submission to December 31st of the current year.
Public Works Department:
Public Works consideration for new unionized seasonal employees occurs on an as-needed basis during the year. The Public Works Department has generally been able to cover its labour requirements with returning employees. There have been limited new hires each year since 2001, this is expected to continue for the current year. Any entry level terms are generally 16 weeks in length per year.
Non-unionized casual employment (flaggers, street marking painters, etc.) is summer oriented, starting in late April/early May. Again, the Public Works Department generally rehires employees. There have been limited opportunities to bring on new staff in recent years, the current season is not expected to be different. Flagger position is the most common need, applicants must have completed a Signalers Certification (traffic flagger course).
Parks and Recreation Department:
Students
High School and University students are advised to submit their applications early in the calendar year, as management within Parks and Recreation review applications for spring/summer employment as early as March.

Seasonal Workers
Most seasonal work is available either through the parks operations or arenas operated by the City of Charlottetown.
