What does ft, pt mean on a job application?

I don’t think this is a standard thing on applications. Perhaps it means that you’d be willing to switch up and down between part time and full time, such as when other employees go on vacation or maternity leave.

I would guess that selecting ft/pt would indicate that you are willing to work either full time or part time, whichever they have available.

@SuperMouse Makes sense.
@dappled_leaves Thank you for your input.

I could call them and find out but just wanted to get some ideas on here first.

It means full time and part time. Perhaps the option is…either? Or just the person who designed the form did a poor job (most likely).

Some companies like it when you tell them that you are willing to work either full time ( ft ) and/or part time ( pt ).

It probably means a flexible schedule, working ft at times, pt at others.
