Job Type used in SlimHire
Permanent
Permanent roles are full-time positions with no predetermined end date. These roles are core to the organization’s workforce, typically come with full benefits, and are intended for long-term employment. They are ideal for individuals seeking career stability and employers building committed teams over time.
Contract
Contract roles are time-bound positions with a clearly defined duration, often ranging from a few months to a couple of years. They are commonly used for project-based needs, seasonal demands, or to cover special assignments. While they may or may not include benefits, these roles allow both employers and candidates flexibility in engagement.
Consultant
Consultant roles are for external professionals hired for their subject matter expertise. These individuals work independently from the company’s internal structure and often advise on strategic, operational, or technical matters. Engagement terms are project-based, and compensation is usually calculated per project, day, or hour.
Internship
Internships are time-limited programs designed primarily for students or recent graduates to gain practical, on-the-job experience. They usually last from 3 to 6 months and can be either paid or unpaid, depending on company policy and local regulations. Internships also serve as a talent pipeline for future permanent hires.
