THE busiest moment of the year for people in Surrey searching online for a new job is 12.38pm today, a company has claimed.

MyJobGroup says the first 'normal' Tuesday after the Christmas break is the day that thousands trawl websites looking for a new career or a new employer, with many making good on a New Year's resolution.

The company said it has analysed statistics from six years of web traffic to reach its conclusion.

Tuesday lunchtimes are the most popular periods, said the business, with the 15 minutes from 12.30pm the peak as workers search during their lunchbreak.
