You’ve likely heard it before – the best time to look for a job is at the beginning of the year. Specifically, January to March – when hiring managers and recruiters are back from holiday vacations, hiring budgets have been finalized and the number of open roles begins to skyrocket as people start turning in their resignation letters after waiting patiently for their annual bonuses to direct deposit.
And on the flip side, job seekers are usually advised to slow down their job hunt (or stop it completely) during the Summer due to scheduling conflicts from vacations (both yours and your prospective employer’s) and companies taking a break to recuperate from all the projects they’ve worked on during the winter months.
