4 Benefits of Continuing Your Job Search During the Holidays

It can be tempting to put your job search on the back burner until after the New Year. After all, you’ve got plenty of things to keep you busy with the holidays, and are employers even still hiring? Yes, they are. Employers hire year-round, though some times are admittedly slower than others. The holiday season should not be a reason to slam the brakes on your job search, but instead it should be an opportunity to keep pushing ahead.

If other job seekers took the “wait until after New Year’s” approach, that could mean there are fewer people vying for open positions. Others may overlook these opportunities because they’ve put a pause on their search; however, you can use this to your advantage as you keep applying and get your resume out there.

Employers may be looking to fill a variety of roles before their new budget kicks in come January. With this rush, you could see a faster turnaround with interviews and offers. Plus, they may have plans for the holidays, or the office may be closed, so they want to get loose ends tied up sooner rather than later.
