Amazon to hire 70,000 seasonal emloyees
The seasonal hiring for Amazon's US logistics centres is aimed at meeting an increase in customer demand, which has risen by over 40% since last year, according to an Amazon statement.
"So far this year, we have converted more than 7,000 temporary employees in the US into full-time, regular roles and we're looking forward to converting thousands more after this holiday season," said Dave Clark, Amazon's vice president of worldwide operations and customer service
"Each year, seasonal jobs lead to thousands of long-term, full-time roles at our sites - jobs that offer great pay, benefits starting on day one and the chance for employees to further their education through our Career Choice programme," Clark added.
Amazon said it has created some 40,000 jobs in the United States since the 2008 financial crisis.
