The retail and hospitality industries have more or less hired their seasonal staff for choice positions a few months ago.
However, because of high turnover in these sectors, employers continue to hire into December according to Workopolis.
The company’s Peter Harris tells 660News, which are the most frequently posted online jobs in Alberta.
He says, “Two of them seem to be in retail, actually, there’s sales representatives in wholesale and retail salespersons and sales clerks are amongst the most commonly, most frequently advertised jobs online in paid advertisements in Alberta.”
Harris adds youth unemployment still remains high since the recession and when you’re the largest group looking for work it’ll be the slowest to see the benefits of the recovery, but we are heading in the right direction.
