    Just as important as disclosing a wage is disclosing the amount of hours expected. A friend recently applied to nearly 800 jobs and noticed the descriptor ‘part time’ meaning anything from 10 - 35 hours a week. A couple they got response from was less than ten hours.

    Job descriptions should be required to have accurate information - if for nothing else than to save both sides engaging in a fruitless correspondence or meeting.
