Help Wanted: Amazon Hiring Holiday Seasonal Workers In Wisconsin

Amazon on Thursday announced it is hiring for more than 120,000 positions this holiday season across its United States network of fulfillment centers, sortation centers and customer service sites. In Wisconsin, Amazon has seasonal job openings at its fulfillment centers in Kenosha and Milwaukee, as well as positions for seasonal campus associates in Madison.

Last year, thousands of holiday positions were transitioned to regular, full-time roles after the holidays, and the company said it expects to continue that trend this year.

“We prepare year round for the holidays and we’re excited to hire for over 120,000 positions this season to help delight our customers,” said Dave Clark, Amazon Senior Vice President of Global Customer Fulfillment, in a statement. “We look forward to welcoming back holiday employees who return year-after-year to Amazon and welcome new faces to the team, many of whom will continue on with regular, full-time roles with the company after the holidays.”
