Now might be a good time for worried managers to treat the office to pizza.Workers aren’t confining job searches to their off hours. On Simplyhired.com, U.S. searches peak on Mondays around 11 a.m. Weekly Web searches on Indeed.com also peak on Mondays around 11 a.m., and the daily peak on other weekdays tends to be around that time as well.

The average peak time for searches on Glassdoor.com is Tuesdays at 9 p.m. in each time zone.
