With the recession on hand, people stop looking for jobs. Many claim that companies are laying off their employees, so why would they waste their time to look for a job now. Expert are saying that now is actually a good time for you all to get back in the game. With nearly 16 million Americans out of work now, it is a sign that most companies need more employees to carry on their normal productivity.
Experts pointed out that each industry has its own hiring season within their business cycle, so certain times within a year is better for a job hunt, and right now this is it. You need to get out there as soon as possible.
It is true that there are more hiring in January than December historically. However, December is the time for you to get your resume and interviews. This is the time for you and your employer to get to know each other, so that when January comes, you will hear the good news. Since the Holiday of Xmas and New Year are coming up, employers will not give up their time to read your resume and interview you by then. Therefore this is the best time for you to put yourself out there.
