Typical Seasonal Hiring at Best Buy

I'm looking to get a job as a seasonal employee at Best Buy in Alberta, Canada. The problem is, I don't really know when they would be hiring the seasonal employees.

Their website says it typically runs from October till December, but a friend of mine that works there says that they're doing it now.

There's two weeks of summer vacation left before school starts again and I'm bored out of my mind. I'd apply for part-time, but I'm sure they would be fully stocked for the summer.

I've previously worked as a Seasonal employee that got put into part-time after the Christmas holidays, but I resigned due to some school issues. I applied in mid-October that time, and I'm thinking it's too early to apply for seasonal right now.

So, again. Does anyone know when the typical seasonal hiring months are?

did you end up getting the job or applying btw?
