If you’re one of those in need of seasonal work, you might want to look into working for a tax preparation company. These companies typically need good temp work between January and April, when they get very busy preparing income tax returns.  

Getting hired to help in this industry is a great way to earn some extra money, but it’s also a good way to learn more about the tax industry, to gain some experience, and to potentially have a stepping-stone into the tax industry.

Just be aware that some of the seasonal jobs in the industry do require special certifications, so always check carefully to ensure you’re qualified before you apply for a particular job.

Types of Work Available
When tax season does come, you’ll find that all kinds of seasonal tax work pops up.

You can check out both smaller and larger tax firms, online tax companies, and even the IRS itself to find temporary positions in the industry during the peak season.

No matter where you go, you’ll also find that there are lots of different types of jobs available. You could end up being anything from a tax preparer (with the right qualifications) to a general clerk to a data transcriber or anything in between. Just keep an open mind, and look for jobs that match your experience and your skills.

Get Started Today
It might seem a little early to start applying for seasonal work, but it’s definitely not.

After all, tax season is here, so if you think this is the right industry for you, start looking into your options and applying for seasonal work right away!
