Here’s What We’re Talking About This Week!

Most college students would love to earn significant money while home on a December college break. Tell the students you care about—UPS may be the place to apply (for more reasons than just the paycheck).

What does UPS provide in addition to a paycheck?

A lot.

1. Potential for a permanent part-time UPS job that lasts through college graduation

In most years, about one-third of people hired by UPS for seasonal package handler jobs are later hired in a permanent part- or full-time position when the holidays are over. Amazing! About 138,000 current UPS employees—nearly a third of the company’s U.S. workforce—started in seasonal positions.

This is important, because nearly three-quarters (74%) of seasonal hires report that they would like their seasonal job to turn into a long-term position.*

*According to a survey conducted by TRUE Global Intelligence, the in-house research practice of FleishmanHillard.

This is excellent! Especially if you’ve listened to this podcast episode where I explain that students who work part-time during the academic year tend to get higher grades than students who don’t.

Win, win!

2. Generous UPS tuition reimbursement
