Countdown to summer hiring season...

If you’re among the many industries that ramps up hiring as the days get longer and the mercury rises, we’ve got a message for you: It’s not too early to start sweating summer hiring.

Whether you’re a mall food court franchisee or a crab shack with an ocean view, we’ve got the hourly workers you need to fuel your summer hiring blitz. In fact, we already began attracting the most qualified seasonal workers months ago. Now they’re just waiting for you.

Get your summer jobs posted today.



Are your foreign workers M.I.A. this summer?

Vacation destinations across the country rely on guest workers from around the globe to fill their summer positions. But this summer it’s likely you’ll need a new recruitment strategy for peak season employees.

This year, the federal government has severely limited the number of visas available to foreign workers, meaning your guest employees are being shown the door. But don’t worry, there’s good news: SnagAJob.com has a great backup plan for you.

Why not hit up America’s job-hungry college students to fill your summer hiring needs? They’re closer, they’re available – and because of the tight job market here at home – they’re in need of new summer job opportunities.

Learn more about our specially priced hiring packages today by calling 1-866-810-7655.



Hiring TipsStraight from the employers...

One of our employers recently asked us what they could do to cut down on their number of job interview no-shows. We asked around and came up with a proven few tips to ensure you’re not wasting time waiting for no one:

  • Act fast: Odds are stellar job seekers are dangling more than one application out there. By contacting these superstars quickly and scheduling an interview for tomorrow instead of next week, you’ll make sure they’re not snatched up by an employer.
  • Repetition: Not only do you want to repeat the date and time of the interview with the applicant over the phone more than once, but you should also call the day of the interview to make sure you’re still on.
  • Give them an eject button: Many hourly workers are juggling school, family and other obligations. And sometimes stuff comes up. Make sure you let applicants know that if they can’t make it to the scheduled interview, calling you ahead to reschedule is totally fine. Not showing up and calling after the fact to apologize is not.
