Does anyone know which companies are urgently hiring for seasonal jobs right now? I'm trying to make some extra cash over the holiday season, and I'd appreciate any leads on where they're fast-tracking applicants.
Retail stores often ramp up their hiring during the holiday season as they anticipate a surge in sales, so this could be a good place to start. Businesses like Target, Walmart, and Best Buy are known for their seasonal positions. You might also want to consider home improvement stores such as Home Depot and Lowe's, especially if you have some knowledge in this area.
Next, check with delivery and logistics companies. With the increase in online shopping, FedEx, UPS, Amazon, and DHL often have many seasonal job openings for delivery drivers and sorters.
Finally, don't neglect seasonal hospitality jobs. Hotels and restaurants often need extra help during the holiday season.
Remember to emphasize your availability and willingness to work flexible hours in your application, as this can often be a key recruitment factor for seasonal roles. It's also worthwhile to apply early and follow up on your applications to show your interest.
Best of luck!
