It may not be easy to fill Christmas jobs amid broader hiring shortages.&nbsp;<\/li><li>The share of seasonal job postings lags pre-pandemic trends, possibly reflecting the fact that retail, logistics and hospitality have already been hiring at pace for some time.&nbsp;<\/li><li>In-person roles, such as sales assistants and food servers, are making a comeback for the 2021 holiday season, as the sectoral mix returns to pre-pandemic patterns.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Hiring for the Christmas period is well underway. Seasonal hiring typically begins in August, picks up throughout September and October and reaches a peak in November, well before Christmas arrives. But while it\u2019s running stronger than last year\u2019s lockdown lows, seasonal hiring has some catching up to do compared with pre-pandemic trends.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The share of searches for holiday jobs is also muted for this stage of the year. That\u2019s a concern given already widespread staff shortages and suggests employers might struggle to bring in all the seasonal help they need over the winter.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Christmas hiring lagging pre-pandemic trends<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although hiring for seasonal jobs traditionally starts to pick up in August, the ramp up has been a little later this year and last, only really gathering momentum in September. As of 1 October 2021, the share of Christmas job postings was up 24% on the same time in 2020. But it was down 33% versus 2019 and 27% below 2018.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2020, the later ramp up may have partly reflected heightened uncertainty over the health situation. It did eventually catch up though, and the peak looked similar to previous years. There may be an element of caution again this year. But another factor could be the fact that sectors which typically offer numerous seasonal jobs, like retail, logistics and hospitality, have already been hiring in large volumes for several months since reopening. Many businesses are still struggling to fill permanent roles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/3_ytj3i44UM7AhOEzkb0b5DxCLQViCwPsC_aCI5Vl-g_OGqbSthaSQGVSv0rxT-cV30tX0BG37t8tR61o_xSEAorFxHbv9YfzJ5gXexIALw81mKOYfBQoKcNBkD6ukx4lJNayO-K=s0\" alt=\"\" \/><figcaption><br><br>Line graph titled \u201cSeasonal ramp-up lags pre-pandemic trends.\u201d With a vertical axis ranging from 2000 to 10,000, Indeed tracked the Christmas and seasonal jobs per million jobs along a horizontal axis ranging from January to December with different coloured lines representing 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021.

But searches are also lagging pre-pandemic trends. As of 1 October 2021, the share of seasonal searches was up 11% versus the same time in 2020, but was 27% down versus 2019 and 33% below 2018. Against a backdrop of hiring shortages in driving and hospitality, that could suggest employers won\u2019t necessarily find it straightforward to hire the seasonal help they want. One thing that is attracting rising interest from jobseekers currently is remote work, which is not usually feasible for seasonal roles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/RFiOKQKNcvBlfdYD1Sod40TgucvQucr9xvnhAlwbyu-h7aiiMISgwEA_VI7lW89ka-L_DkpDS2qo6SWvUa6x0a1Hs1TA-5EyFg43DzSW1zbGOIj58hmKh3mS-_3PFlH7AEwG_adT=s0\" alt=\"\" \/><figcaption><br><br>Line graph titled \u201cSearches down on 2018 and 2019.\u201d With a vertical axis ranging from 2000 to 8000, Indeed tracked the Christmas and seasonal job searches per million searches along a horizontal axis ranging from January to December with different coloured lines representing 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021.

But the Christmas shopping spree also creates roles in other parts of the economy. Goods need to be distributed from warehouses, boosting opportunities in transport and logistics. Shoppers also need refreshments, creating food service roles.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sector mix looked different in 2020, as the pandemic drove a shift away from face-to-face services towards home-delivered goods. With the economy opening up in 2021, the sector mix has a greater emphasis on in-person roles, with higher shares of sales assistants and food servers and smaller shares of pickers, warehouse operatives and drivers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/FVb7w6tjxVRNh3XK43_nkSv8KRH51YiuuMhA3d6b45czriI2YQXESO4jP-mZesMiNZ9pYnAlInygc4fURgglx72FKHlbFoPfhtamQ4tsxDR_nzuzyZg_O8cpfmFIF9mo1GcY4hgn=s0\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"477\" \/><figcaption><br><br>Bar chart titled \u201cMore seasonal hiring is for in-person roles this year.\u201d With a vertical axis ranging from 0% to 60%, Indeed compared the percentage of Christmas and seasonal jobs in driving, food service, stocking, retail, and sales categories with different coloured bars representing 2019, 2020, and 2021.

If employers struggle to bring in the help they need in the run-up to the holiday season, it could be a case of bah humbug this Christmas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Methodology<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>We define seasonal job postings as those with one or more holiday-related term in the job title, including, but not limited to, \u201choliday,\u201d \u201cseasonal,\u201d and \u201cChristmas.\u201d Seasonal job searches are defined as those containing one or more of the same list of holiday-related terms.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Searches for seasonal roles are muted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":36,"featured_media":11288,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"recruiter-hub-blocks.php","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"post_mwm_category":[351],"post_topic":[],"post_content_type":[],"post_duration":[],"post_actions":[],"post_franchise":[],"post_mwm_author":[305],"class_list":["post-12964","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","post_mwm_category-jobseeker-behaviour","post_mwm_author-jackkennedy"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
