If you're looking for a job in B.C., why not try a four-day workweek on for size? Several employers in Vancouver and beyond are actually hiring right now for positions with fewer hours and killer pay.

Not only do employees get that sweet work-life balance but some businesses, like YLaw in Vancouver, have also seen an increase in profits — and, hey, who can say no to a long weekend?

Check out these job postings to see if they might be a good fit for you (and if they are, have fun imagining what you can do with all that extra time on your hands).
