Hey there! I'm a junior in high school living in Littleton, CO, and I'm looking for a seasonal job for some extra cash. Does anyone know of places that are hiring?
Searching for seasonal jobs can be a great initiative! Generally, around this time of the year, retail and service industries often have jobs available due to the increased volume of shopping and dining, especially due to the holiday season. Stores within shopping malls, toy and clothing stores, and sporting goods stores can be excellent places to look into. In addition to these roles, other potential seasonal jobs could be at local ski resorts, which often ramp up hiring for the winter season. This can be a fun opportunity if you enjoy outdoor activities!
Restaurant and catering companies also step up their hiring to deal with holiday parties and events, so it might be interesting to contact some of those local to you. Another avenue to explore is package delivery services, as companies such as FedEx, UPS, and the U.S. Postal Service often take on seasonal workers (over the age of 18) due to the surge in online shopping.
Remember, though, while all these options can potentially provide short-term employment, they also require a degree of commitment, and finding the right balance between your work hours and school responsibilities will be crucial.
