This means 8pm to 1am, Monday to Friday, but as with most jobs, you might have to put in a few extra hours at busy times or when there are important deadlines to be met. The more flexible you are the better your chance of finding a job. All types of companies, across all sectors, employ typists but the role is much broader than the title suggests.
