Christmas vacancies

Soon after the start of the academic year Christmas vacancies start to be advertised. Shops usually advertise from September/October and catering and bar work from November. Employers may need you to work for the busy period right up to Christmas and New Year, so will check your availability before offering you work. Some employers offer a student transfer, so you can continue working at a different branch if you go home over the holiday period.
