Seasonal hiring is upon us, so let’s take a look at holiday hiring announcements. Retailers are predicted to add 410,000 seasonal positions, the lowest since 2008, due to inflation affecting labor costs.

Still, you can find seasonal jobs if you know where to look! Hourly wages vary; take a look at Amazon and UPS, which are offering rates of more than $20 per hour, (with some Amazon locations going up to $28 per hour).
