If your wallet’s feeling a little light before the holidays, you’re not alone. The good news? Lubbock retailers are gearing up for the busiest shopping season of the year, and they need your help. From stocking shelves to wrapping gifts and checking out customers, seasonal jobs offer an easy way to earn some extra cash while keeping the holiday spirit alive.
Lubbock Businesses Are Hiring Now for the Holidays
Many national chains and local stores are already posting seasonal job openings. Employers like Target, Kohl’s, and Hobby Lobby typically ramp up hiring in October, but don’t wait, as positions fill up fast as the holidays approach.
I did a very quick search on Indeed for holiday employment and found that newcomer Nordstrom’s is hiring holiday help in Lubbock, as is Aerie, Homegoods, Marshalls, and more. So get those applications in as soon as you can and start making that Christmas cash.
Why Seasonal Jobs Are a Win-Win
Seasonal work isn’t just about extra spending money. These short-term positions can lead to full-time opportunities, especially if you make a great impression (which I believe you will). Plus, flexible hours make them ideal for students, retirees, or anyone juggling multiple commitments.
Where to Find Holiday Job Listings in Lubbock
Job seekers can check popular platforms like Indeed, Snagajob, and the Texas Workforce Commission’s website. Don’t forget to stop by local shopping centers or ask managers directly, and many stores post “Now Hiring” signs right at their entrances.
