Moreno Valley will help amazon.com with its local holiday retail hiring this year.
Anyone interested in working with the online retail giant during the upcoming Christmas season may apply at amazon.com/iejobs, said Mike Lee, the city’s economic development director.
All applications will be reviewed, and anyone qualified will be asked by email to attend one of the company’s local hiring events. No dates have been announced, but the events will be held at the Moreno Valley Employment Resource Center, which is located at the Towngate Shopping Center, 12625 Frederick St.
“We did the same thing with them last year, and it went pretty well,” Lee said. “They put an emphasis on hiring local people.”
Those hired will either work at Amazon’s Moreno Valley facility or one of its two facilities in San Bernardino, Lee said.
The resource center is a partnership between Moreno Valley and the Riverside County Workforce Development Center. For more information call the economic development director at (951) 413-3460 or visit [email protected].
