Strategy is everything, and this one also applies to job seekers. In this competitive world, a wise job seeker should know the best time to approach a potential employer, which is the month of December.
The reason this month is called a “a magic month” for job seekers is because some employers often become desperate in January when some employees leave, which calls for immediate replacement, and the first thought that comes to the minds of employers is to check whether in their database there are CVs for qualified job applicants. If by chance they see your CV, you will definitely receive a call, which would decide your fate.
In the month of December, most job seekers take a rest from the usual hustle to celebrate Christmas. It is in January when they remember there is unfinished business, job hunting. When this happens, a scramble for jobs starts in mid-January. It is to the advantage of those who applied for employment in the month of December because by the time others are dropping their CVs, you would have secured employment and settled at your new work station.
Career advisers will tell you that institutions like banks don’t take time to replace employees who leave them, they replace immediately. It is advisable that job seekers who are desperately searching for employment to consider applying for employment in the banking sector, because this is where they can easily land well-paying jobs.
We, therefore, advise those in the job hunting mission to apply for employment this month to see results trickling in.
