The holiday season is approaching, and that means retailers across the country are gearing up for the holiday rush. One of my favorite stores of all time, Bass Pro Shops, is no exception! The outdoor retailer is looking to fill over 3,500 seasonal part and full-time positions across all US stores during its National Hiring Day event on Wednesday, October 12th, and Thursday, October 13th.
Here in the Las Vegas Valley, Bass Pro Shops is looking to hire 65 candidates for positions in several different retail departments. The event will be taking place at the store near Blue Diamond Road and Dean Martin Drive right by Silverton Casino Hotel, and interested job seekers are encouraged to apply in advance. Walk-ins will be welcomed from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on both days, but even if you can’t make it to the event, you’re still encouraged to contact the store directly. So what are you waiting for? Start your job hunt today!
