Which word refers to a job that is not permanent?

temporary
stable
consistent
reliable

The correct answer is: temporary

The term "temporary" precisely describes a job that is not permanent. It signifies employment that is intended for a limited duration, whether due to the nature of the task, seasonal work, or as a fill-in for a permanent employee who is absent. This word conveys the idea that the position will end after a certain period or event, as opposed to being an enduring role. In contrast, "stable," "consistent," and "reliable" all suggest qualities associated with permanence and dependability. A "stable" job indicates security and ongoing employment, "consistent" refers to regularity or unchanging conditions, and "reliable" implies dependability in performance or outcome. None of these terms capture the essence of a job defined by its temporary nature.
