On Call Esthetics-A Good Career Choice or Not?

You just graduated from esthetics school, and to your dismay there aren't as many esthetician jobs as there are estheticians. Welcome to the world of rough economic times! Don't despair, it is certainly not just esthetics that has little to offer in the way of jobs, every profession is negatively affected by this economy. How do you get experience beyond the classroom if there are few jobs available? How do you get a job when the few openings go to the estheticians with more experience than you?

Is on-call esthetics a good career choice or not? For those of you not familiar with it, it is where you only work as needed. If a spa needs a back-up esthetician for special events or when their esthetician is out sick, you would fill in for them. In my opinion, if you don't have a better offer why not take an on-call job? What can it hurt? You have the opportunity to do what you love until you find a full-time position while you gain valuable experience. It is a great way to get your foot in the door--what could be better than that?
