Has anyone here been hired over the holidays or personally know someone who was? Curious if it’s actually happening or if everything’s frozen until January.

I can't imagine there's much going on, at least not unless an organization has an opening that needs to be filled immediately. Ordinary business seems to be on break. It's a good idea to get applications in this week, but I wouldn't expect to hear anything back until after New Year's.

It's never happened to me. I'm sure it does on occasion, I just have yet to have any luck job searching during this time of year. I'll get back at it toward the middle or end of January when everyone is back in office and locking in for the new year.

I’ve been in conversations with an agency for months and there’s been a sprint towards the end of the year in terms of momentum but sadly looks like the year will end without landing something

Over the years, I have been hired at three different jobs (including my current one) in December. It’s difficult, but it does happen. Two of these jobs, I started as a contractor, and they made me FT.
