Macy's to Host Virtual Job Fair To Hire Seasonal Workers

LOS ANGELES (CNS) – Out-of-work Southlanders can apply for seasonal

employment with Macy’s, which is looking to hire 6,100 holiday workers

throughout California for positions at the company’s department stores, call

centers and distribution and fulfillment centers.

   Macy’s, which has 97 stores in California, is encouraging job seeks to

submit applications now and will be filling seasonal work positions on

Thursday, Oct. 22, during a holiday virtual hiring event where interviews will

be safely conducted by phone due to the coronavirus pandemic.

   “The quick and convenient process allows seasonal candidates to

interview from wherever,” according to a statement released by Macy’s, which

says it is offering competitive pay, access to flexible scheduling, merchandise

discounts and the opportunity to earn additional bonuses.

   Macy’s officials noted that their seasonal applicants often receive an

offer the same day they apply and many stay with the company long after the

holidays — about 1,000 seasonal workers last year were hired on permanently,

and about one-third of Macy’s store leadership started their careers during the

holiday season.

   “To support Macy’s convenient shopping experience, stores will also

offer a new, versatile role focused on picking and packing contact-free

curbside pickup and same-day delivery orders,” company officials said.

   Candidates can apply online 24/7. Open positions and additional

information are available at macysjobs.com.
