The position must not exist before the investment takes place to qualify for net new full-time jobs. A certain number of net new full-time jobs need to be created and maintained during a given period agreed between the firm and local or state governments. Usually, a job qualified for credits and incentives must have the same or higher wages than the county average and be maintained during the period agreed in the tax incentive agreement.
