Seasonal Job Registry for Students

Students may apply through the Seasonal Jobs Registry for summer positions with the Jobs for Youth and Post-Secondary Program.   Other student summer jobs, in areas such as health and tourism require a separate application. Available positions are listed at Student Summer Jobs. 

The Seasonal Jobs Registry is an electronic database of Island residents who are available to fill temporary government jobs, from 10 to 20 weeks, during summer and throughout the year.  Your student application will expires in September.

What happens after I submit my application?

When an opportunity becomes available, the Seasonal Job Registry will be searched for qualified workers based on the information they provided on their application, i.e. geographical area, employee skills, and job requirements. It is important to provide as much information as possible on your application to be sure yours is screened for jobs when they are available. If a position becomes available, the government department or organization where the job exists will contact you directly.

What do I need to include in the online application?

In addition to detailed identity and contact information, you will be asked to provide a summary of: 

• Education
• Employment/volunteer work
• Additional training and certification, i.e. valid driver’s licence, first-aid/ CPR training, WHMIS/food safety
• General skills (checklist provided) 

You will have the option to upload your resume and provide additional information to support your application.
