Career Trial aims to encourage jobseekers and employers who are unsure about the job fit to go through a short-term trial before considering formal employment. To provide more opportunities for Singaporean jobseekers to try out jobs, Career Trial has been expanded, with effect from 15 May 2019 to include part-time jobs. This enhancement caters to individuals who need part-time work arrangements to return to the workforce.

With the expanded scope, Career Trial is targeted at full-time jobs paying at least $1,500/month and part-time jobs paying at least $750/month.
