Job Search Strategies During the Holidays
The holiday season can be an excellent time to job hunt, as many people slow their search, creating less competition, and some companies aim to fill positions before year-end. Here are effective strategies to boost your holiday job search:

1. Network During Holiday Gatherings

Leverage Events: Attend holiday parties, professional gatherings, or community events to meet people in your field.
Elevator Pitch: Be prepared to introduce yourself and your job goals concisely.
Follow Up: Send a friendly follow-up email or message to new contacts after meeting them.
2. Utilize Seasonal Opportunities

Temporary Jobs: Look for seasonal positions, which can sometimes turn into permanent roles.
Volunteer: Volunteering can expand your network and demonstrate your work ethic and passion to potential employers.
3. Tailor Applications

Quality: Focus on customizing your resume and cover letter for each position.
Highlight Availability: Mention your willingness to start immediately or work flexible hours if applicable.
4. Engage with Hiring Managers

Reach Out Directly: Use LinkedIn or professional networks to connect with hiring managers or recruiters.
Timing is Key: Early December and the week between Christmas and New Year’s can be excellent times to reach out, as decision-makers are often less busy.
5. Stay Active Online

LinkedIn Updates: Refresh your LinkedIn profile, add holiday-related networking events to your activity, and post professional insights to stay visible.
Job Boards: Keep an eye on job postings even during the holidays, as some companies post year-end openings.
6. Be Strategic with Follow-Ups

Send a Holiday Message: Use the season to reconnect with contacts, sending a warm holiday greeting and a brief update about your job search.
Follow Up on Applications: Politely inquire about the status of applications you’ve submitted, as some hiring managers aim to finalize roles before the new year.
7. Plan for January

Prep for New Year Opportunities: Many companies ramp up hiring in January. Use December to research companies, polish your materials, and strategize.
Set Goals: Outline a clear plan for applications, networking, and interviews in the coming year.
By staying persistent and using the unique opportunities the holidays provide, you can make significant progress in your job search while positioning yourself for success in the new year.

The unfortunate truth of owning and running a business.

Running a business is really hard.

What they don’t tell you is that it can cause severe stress and anxiety, and drains you mentally to the point of depression in even the most laid-back people.

People will talk about you, compare you to others, use you, they will view you as a service and not a person anymore.

Friends and family will expect discounts and people will value you and your hard work less than a big chain store.

You have to worry about if you forget to email/message someone back, are they going to think it was on purpose? Did you disappoint them? Will they hold that against you? When in reality you just can’t get to everyone’s messages and emails.

Starting up and running a successful business puts incredible strain on personal lives and relationships, many of which fail because there is just often no work-life balance.

You need to be the director, the worker, the admin, the marketing team, the accountant, the cleaner..... All the while being a parent, a husband or a wife, family support, friend...

There’s a reason you don’t see many people succeed in small businesses after 5-10 years. If they are successful they are overwhelmed.
It takes a toll. It’s freaking exhausting. Especially the past couple of years when so much has been out of our control.

Here’s a small reminder that we are just normal people with hectic lives.

Be kind, be patient, support small businesses…….and hopefully more of us will stick around!

And know that 2023 prices are not 2024 prices.

Thanks if you’ve gave us the opportunity to serve you and know we always have your best interest at heart.
