The Post-Holiday Hiring Booom is almost here! There is a hiring boom that happens every year after the holidays.

Here are two strategies you can use at the same time:

• Strategy 1 – Jump in this year, make as much progress as you can. You might get hired. If you do, that is great!
• Strategy 2 – If you don’t get hired this year, at least you are already practiced and you may have some leads for getting hired during the Post-Holiday Hiring Boom that happens after mid-January.

What is special about the job market after the holidays?

This is a simple question. Every year there is a long holiday season. And after that long period of relaxing and reflection, people and businesses set new goals. Businesses often want to grow. People want the same thing. So what happens is that some employers need people to fill roles where critical skills have left and some employers need people to fill roles where new busienss goals require new skills.

To take advantage of these two strategies, the window of opportunity is closing. I suggest to get started during November. If you want job support, just send your CV with your questions to tate@employmentforimmigration.nz and I will respond in about a day.
