Hiring starts now
Just last week, Terry Lundgren, Macy's chairman and CEO announced that the company will hire more than 65,000 seasonal workers for the 2010 holiday season. The hiring represents a 3 percent increase from previous years. This ramping up of workers from Macy's and other retail companies such as Toys "R" Us, and Walmart is a positive outlook for retail employment for the last 18 months.
Most positions that Macy's hire for this year's season are part-time which include sales associates, back room stockers, customer service associates, shipment and distribution workers, and online order processors. Hiring for store sales positions will begin this first week of October. Hiring for operations positions already has begun last week.
For RGIS hourly employees, this is also an exciting opportunity to keep a stable income until the holiday is over because as everybody knows, RGIS does not have much work to offer in holiday seasons. In fact, November and December are the lowest months of the year.
Applications are now being accepted online at Macy's website
