Retailers across the nation have begun announcing seasonal job opportunities, with hiring expected to be ongoing through Black Friday in November. Nationally, holiday hiring is expected to reach 700,000 in 2012, an increase of 6% compared to the 660,000 reported in 2011. Closely matching projections released by the Retail Association of Nevada at this time last year, Nevada added 4,100 retail positions between September and December of 2011, which represented growth of 3.2% in total employment in the sector.
