So, Why Would You Want to Look for a Job During the Holidays?
Have you thought, “I’ll just wait till after Christmas and New Years to start looking for a job?” or “no one is hiring on, so why even look?”
I can’t tell you the number of folks that tell me this, but let me help you turn the tables. There are plenty of positions available this time of year, but it’s all up to you. Let me explain.
Even though there might be a few less “hires” happening right now, those that are networking and discovering those leads will be the ones matching up with the employer’s needs. You see, if most folks take the holiday season off from their job search, your odds will be that much better!
Also, this time of year, it’s a great time for informational interviews - folks are in a very giving spirit - they want to help! I even have one collage that states, “It’s a person’s choice not to be working…” It’s up to you to go out and make the connections-know why your future employer would hire you!
