Question about applying for a job
Alright, so I've filled out a few different applications before, but I don't recall this question: "Please enter how many hours per week you are available to work"...So am I supposed to put 168 hours [every hour of the week], or ANY, or what? Sorry, but as you can see I've never had a job before and I just don't know what to put, and it's probably really simple haha, Thanks!

Maybe give some free advice about: Job Searches?
If you want to work full time, put down 40.
If you want part time work, put down whatever
number of hours you re able to work.

When I was available at any hour of any day, I simply put "Any" or "All" where required. And if you're willing to do that, be sure to have "Full-Time" checked.

like say your willing to work 8 hours on weekdays, and 5 on weekends.
( 8 x 5 = 40 ) + ( 5 x 2 = 10 )
So that would be 50 hours in a week

Hi there,
Normally when they put that on a job application form it is to find out if there are any specific hours you can or cannot work and whether you are looking for full or part time work.
So if you have no commitments and can work at anytime then put down 40 hours pw. (Or however many you want to work)
Good Luck!!

I think it means in total, how many hours do you want to work a week. When I first got my job it was during the school year so I only wanted to work Friday's and weekend. Each shift ranges from 6-7 hours so I said 20 hours a week. Then once school got out for summer I told my manager I wanted to work about 30 hours a week.
Normally it means what's the most amount of hours you're willing to work in a week. Are you willing to work EVERY single day 24 hours? Doubt it, so don't put 168.
haha, I was wondering this too when I filled out my first application. Both my parents are in management and have to hire and fire people, so I just asked them what it meant. =D
