DETROIT (WWJ) - If you are looking for a job before the holiday season hits, you might want to head to Target.
Target plans to hire 3,000 seasonal team members in Detroit, and the first of two national hiring events will take place in every single Target store this weekend.
The hiring event takes place from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday Oct. 11 through Sunday Oct. 13.
Interested candidates will have the opportunity to meet directly with Target store leaders and interview on the spot. Eligible candidates can also receive a conditional job offer during the weekend events. Applicants can also apply in advance online at TargetSeasonalJobs.com to secure and select a specific interview time.
In addition to earning at least $13 an hour, almost double the federal mandate, seasonal employees benefit from a 10% discount at Target stores and on Target.com, an additional 20% merchandise wellness discount and the opportunity to earn holiday pay on Thanksgiving and Christmas.
A second hiring event will take place the first weekend in November.
