Why you shouldn’t assume it will be quiet on the job front in December.
Companies and managers want to start new projects in January.
Put yourself in the employers shoes and what would you rather be doing on January 2nd. Get cracking with a strong team in place or start thinking about looking at Job Specs and CVs and planning assessment centres.
The more forward thinking companies have DONE their recruitment by January.
Recruiting in December avoids the ‘Time Wasters’.
How often do we see people looking more keenly for a ‘Counter Offer’ rather than a new job in January. By contrast the person interviewing on December 22nd is showing genuine intent to go the extra mile and find a new job.
The savvy recruiter knows that December candidates are serious about their job hunting.
There is TIME to recruit in December. There isn’t in January.
Recruiting takes time for interviewers as well as interviewees. Often Senior Managers are closer to home in December and so may be more able to find the time to interview and make decisions.
The busy manager will be looking to get things wrapped up before Christmas.
There is real evidence that “December is Quiet” is a myth so our advice is to get your CV up to date now and be ready to be applying for roles and interviewing. If you take your eye off the ball on the assumption that it will be quiet and you could miss out on the perfect job.
