Companies that hire part time?

[minnie1012]

Hi Does anyone know of companies that hire part time workers? I used to work part time (3 days a week) at my old company. They let me work part time after my first child. After my second baby they had done so many layoffs and were short staffed they said I needed to be full time. It was a 2 hour commute and at least 9 1/2 hour day so I wasn't able to do full time with 2 small kids (no babysitting available for those long days nor did I want that). I really would like to do something 3 days a week again but I am having a hard time finding a company that will hire in at part time or some sort of flex time.

I know Johnson and Johnson hires part time but I have applied multiple times and never even get a call. I think Met life does too but I don't know of any other companies.

If anyone knows of companies that do hire part time workers if you could let me know so I can keep checking their websites. (I live in NJ)

thanks!

Similar thing happened to me, but I have only found part-time opportunities with small companies ( I live in the Cleveland area so I don't know any in NJ)

Good luck!

Bank of America hires part time... you can go to their website and way down on the bottom is a link for careers, it will tell you if they have anything in your area. They hire for as little as 25 hrs week and that gives you benifits.

FedEx in New Jersey does. and UPS. Most schools hire part time office staff. Most townships hire part time office staff. Hope this helps

I live in Central NJ, and work 10-2 in an office. It took me a long time to find this. Your best bet is checking Craigslist and Monster etc. In this economy it is hard finding any job.

You also might be able to find something local and full time that would pay your bills and daycare. Good luck.
