The holiday hiring phase seems to be less active than usual according to a survey conducted by SnagAJob.com, a website for part-time and full-time employees. According to the statistics hiring should be down 33% from last year.

The suggestion is that if you are looking for holiday work, then you ought to get started now. The earlier you start the more likely you are to up your chances of being hired.

“While the economy is obviously having an effect on hiring, there are jobs out there,” says Shawn Boyer, CEO of SnagAJob.com. “You just have to be aggressive and use all the tools at your disposal to separate yourself from the crowd, starting off by applying now. Job-seekers will have to do their homework, be willing to work flexible hours, and go in with a great attitude because that’s what employers most desire.”
