Is it unrealistic to try and get a retail job in january after christmas?

I go to college in miami and need to get a job when i go bac in january. i would like a retail job, but will anyone hire in january?|||Yep all types will hire. Keep in mind several things.





1) a lot of people leave after the holidays because they just wanted seasonal help.





2) stores often get ready for store inventory, remodels, and setting garden centers/spring areas.





3) look not just at stores but also their suppliers and venders. Pepsi, chips, batteries, DVD%26#039;s all need stocked year around.





If you only want part-time and need to work around your school schedule here%26#039;s a very over looked route.





Go into a Department store (Wal-mart, Kmart, Target). Go to the customer service desk. Ask for the Vender log or salesman log. In it you will find a ton of business that go in and out of that store and others on a daily business. most venders pay a lot better than the stores.|||Alot of people might quit after the holidays besides the temporary help so there might be some openings. Good Luck!|||Retail jobs are constantly hiring because the turnover rate is so high. You should be able to find plenty of open positions.|||Retail stores, especially the one that I work at always accepts resumes. Drop a few off at some stores and see what happens.|||Depends, right after the holidays is when they need the least help, on the other hand there%26#039;s no loss in trying. Might want to drop off your applications before the holidays if you want to have a chance in January.|||That is time for the snowbirds to arrive. Look in the tourist field: restaurant, bar, hotel, etc.|||Many stores have sales in the first few months of the year, and places like Miami probably have a high turnover in staff. It should not be too much problem finding something in retail.|||Not unrealistic but very tough. Usually January is the time where retail stores let go of all of their seasonal help. But don%26#039;t give up hope, you never know.|||Some will. Go ahead and apply. Good Luck! :)|||Not likely, it%26#039;ll be slow, and all the holiday temps will have been laid off. Everyone%26#039;s too broke in January to keep shopping.|||There is a chance we do hire here. But it depends on how many they keep from the sesonal work just go and apply and see what happens good luck.|||it would only be unrealistic if the store is going out of business
