This time of year, even a little bit of help can go a long way. Here are some jobs that your neighbors have started posting on QuadJobs to make their season a little lighter and brighter. Hire a hardworking college student near you to help with these tasks and give yourself the gift of calm! Just a few hours can make such a difference.
- Addressing holiday cards. If you’re someone who sends out a large number of cards, this may be the perfect task to take off your list.
- Hanging outdoor lights. It’s fun until it’s not… and that’s the moment to recruit a QuadJobs student to finish the job. (PS — A great gift to whoever deals with the lights in your household: Hire a QuadJobs college student to take them down and store them neatly in January. Nobody loves that job!)
- Holiday party help. From prepping food, passing out drinks, playing DJ, taking coats, and cleaning up afterward, having a QuadJobber help at your holiday party will guarantee that you have a good time yourself!
- Wrapping gifts. Assembling complicated toys is also a popular job post this time of year!
- Mailing gifts to out-of-town relatives and friends. This is SUCH a treat to skip! Send a college student to stand in line and mail your packages.
- Babysitting. Hire a local college student to keep the kids active and entertained during winter break, OR for an evening that you’re going out. Our students get rave reviews as babysitters — which you can easily see for yourself, when someone applies for your job post, and their past job reviews are included in their profile.
