Walmart Aiming To Hire Thousands Of Permanent Supply Chain Workers; Sacramento Hiring Event Set For Nov. 3-4
SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — Walmart is gearing up for a big hiring spree to try and fill positions in its supply chain network.
Come Nov. 3 and 4, the company will hold hiring events across the country - including in Sacramento. Walmart says they are planning to hire 20,000 permanent supply chain workers.
Positions Walmart is looking to fill include lift drivers, order-fillers, shipping loaders, power equipment operators, diesel techs, and drivers.
Walmart says its average wages for full-time supply chain workers is $20.37 an hour. These supply chain positions are all considered full-time, Walmart says, meaning workers qualify for healthcare and other benefits.
