Dear JobsBlog: I observed in some work postings on microsoft.com/careers, “part-time” and “job share” positions are outlined. What exactly does this mean,
office 2007 Enterprise key, and how are they different than “full-time?” love to work part-time! wouldn't? ;-) I decided to pick up this question because I’m actually a part-time and position share employee at Microsoft. When I considered returning to Microsoft this past summer, it was important that I be able to maintain a lot of the flexibility I had when I was self-employed … and going part-time was a perfect solution. to define the terms … At Microsoft in the US, part-time is considered anything less than a 40 hour work week. Actual hours and schedule vary from opportunity to opportunity,

office Enterprise 2007 license, I work 32 hours week, which I complete in four days a week. As a part-time employee, you are still “full-time” … i.e. blue badge. The big difference is that your pay and time off work is pro-rated relative to the average hours you work (i.e. I get 80% of my standard salary and vacation/sick time since I work an 80% week) … and part-time employees pay a very small annual deductible (but still no co-pay) for our medical benefits. also jobshare. This is when two part-time employees share a single task or position, up to 150% per employment or position. My jobshare partner is Ariel, author of Microspotting. She works 25 hours per week. also offers other flexible work arrangements, like flextime (most positions at MS already operate on “flexible” schedules … but this is if you need to significantly alter your schedule),
discount microsoft office Home And Business 2010, telework (when you work from a non-Microsoft location or from a different Microsoft location than the rest of the team), and a compressed workweek (full-time workload, but your regular work schedule is fewer than five full days per week). of the time, the work descriptions will list it if a position has been slated for a flexible work arrangement … but if one of these arrangements is super important to you (like it was for me),
genuine microsoft office Standard 2007, let your recruiter know up front to see they can find an opportunity for you. also advise that if think you may be interested in a flexible work arrangement and you find the right career match at Microsoft (even it’s not with a flexible work arrangement at the time), come on in and do your best work … and then approach the flexible work arrangement down the road. I have to say that I’ve personally been very impressed with Microsoft’s desire to create an environment where we can do our best work … whether that is telecommuting, working a flexible schedule …. or just enjoying work-free Mondays, like me. :)
