Hi

It is coming up to that time of the year where shops are looking for christmas temps. This could be the perfect opportunity for people to get into full time work. I have started a list of all the companys that are starting to recruit christmas temps now ready for the festive season.

Build a bear
Early Learning Centre
The Disney Store
The Card Factory
The Entertainer
Argos
TK Maxx
Hawkins Bazaar
Boots
Debenhams
Matalan
Sainsburys
Primark
Thorntons


This is how far i have got at the moment. But i will be finding out about more. If anyone else knows anymore then post it on here and ill add it to the list:)

Bear in mind this list might vary depending on your location.


But remember

A Xmas Job can Lead To a Permanent Job!!

Good luck:j

    My local TK Maxx (Birmingham Bullring) have also been advertising for about a week.

    Looking at the poster they want applicants with retail experience and it looks like the jobs start in September. I guess the early start is to ensure people are trained up before the Christmas rush.
