I am a witness to the December hiring blitz, I had 6 interviews scheduled for this week, an all time high! Thanks for backing up what I was starting to suspect, everyone is getting their ducks in a row for 2011 and many want to tie up loose ends before they head out for the holiday. Good luck to everyone hitting the pavement for that next opportunity!

I like this article and I have to agree with Burns, this is prime time for networking and shaking the ground. Thanks

I absolutely agree this month is a great time to keep moving forward on your job search. All the reasons given are true and now is the time to lay the groundwork for success in January.

To make it fun I created a "Countdown to January" program. Every day I'm giving out a surprise and activity that will set you up for success in the New Year. Get started today. Come back every day and do the suggested activity, and you will be well positioned in the New Year. http://bit.ly/i60JXr

Enjoy! Happy Holidays and Happy Job Hunting.
