    This is an IT position that would be expected to be a standard 8am-5pm schedule with minimal night and/or weekend work. As these are IT positions, there may be some night and weekend work but that should be limited and not the norm.

     

    Expectations is that role(s) will be for about 1 year and that we may convert them to FTE between the 6 month and 1 year point of the temp assignment.
    Candidates must live within 50 miles of an office but will be fully remote until/if they are converted to FTE, at which time they will be subject to our current hybrid policy at that time.
