During the holidays, many job searches grind to a screeching halt. Don’t let yours be one of them.

Seize the opportunity the holidays give you. With a winning mindset, the right focus, and these holiday job search tips, you can position yourself to land that dream job.

Consider this:☃ Many companies ramp up hiring as the year draws to a close –

so they can hit the ground running when the new year begins.☃ You’ll have a head start on your new years resolutions when

the shopping season is over and the busy new year begins.

Go Against the Grain☃ If you pursue your job

search during the holidays, when others aren’t, there may be less competition while your competition is sitting on the sidelines.

☃ The holidays tend to lead to a more welcoming, friendly atmosphere in the workplace.

Get in Touch☃ Keep making the calls, sending the resumes, and

pounding the pavement.☃ Refresh connections that have gone stale. One of those

relationships may lead to the referral that gets you the job.

☃ If you’re feeling intimidated by a phone call or in-person meeting, connect online using LinkedIn or send a quick email.

Join the Party☃ Holidays take the sting out of social

gatherings. People tend to be more receptive to conversation.

☃ Participate in parties you’re invited to and ask open-ended questions that get people talking about themselves. Exchange business cards.

Freshen Up☃ Take stock of where you are, what has worked, and

what hasn’t worked.☃ Freshen up your resume so it’s strong and puts your

best foot forward.☃ Remember what it is that makes you the one to hire

so you can walk into your next interview with a clear, confident message.
