We are coming to the time of year when there are generally more job vacancies becoming available.
The summer months are notoriously bad for a job search. This is partly due to staff holidays, meaning fewer people to conduct interviews and post job listings.
But the autumn months are a breath of fresh air for the job hunt so if you are looking for new employment, now is a good time. There are a variety of new part-time job listings in Hull and the surrounding areas.
This week, we've chosen a few that don't specify any particular set of formal qualifications and want people who are helpful and personable. Have a look below and apply if any catch your eye. If none of them appeals to you, don't be disheartened because there are sure to be plenty of temporary Christmas vacancies posted soon.
