I had a recruiter say, "Let's pick this up in the new year," and it felt both reassuring and dismissive at the same time. Is that usually genuine, or a soft no wrapped in festive language?

It's hard to know how to read that. It could be a generic brushoff with some holiday trimmings, but it's conceivable it could mean things will begin again. In any event, it's probably honest in that nothing much will be happening in the next few weeks and there's no point to pretending otherwise.

Might as well enjoy the holidays then eh

I probably would have felt the same way if someone said that to me. It is really hard to tell with recruiters these days. Hopefully they meant it genuinely. Praying you hear back in the New Year.
