Sep 25, 2023, 5:15 PM

I’ve never worked for Amazon, but I have to imagine at least for job security it’s a great place to work. As one of the biggest companies in the world, you certainly would never have to worry about your check bouncing… And soon they’ll be hiring a ton of folks in Colorado! 

Amazon said it plans to hire more than 5,685 in Colorado this holiday season.

They plan to on hiring 250,000 employees throughout the United States in full-time, seasonal, and part-time roles across its operations network.

Amazon said the roles range from packing and picking to sorting and shipping and are open to applicants from all backgrounds and experience levels. The jobs will be open to a range of hours, both full- and part-time, and offer pay between $17 and $28 per hour depending on position and location in the U.S.

Interested candidates can see hiring locations and open positions at amazon.com/apply.
