The holiday season is traditionally one of the most hectic times for retailers, and JCPenney is no exception. JCPenney has announced its ambitious plan to hire over 10,000 seasonal associates to ensure smooth operations and maintain high service standards.
“The holiday season is a pivotal time for us, and we are thrilled to welcome new associates who share our passion for customer service and holiday spirit. Our goal is to create joyful and memorable shopping experiences for our customers,” said Jill Soltau, CEO of JCPenney. “By expanding our workforce, we can better meet the increased demand and ensure that every customer who walks through our doors or shops online finds exactly what they’re looking for.”
The hiring spree will encompass various positions across JCPenney’s network of stores, distribution centers, and customer care centers, reinforcing the company’s commitment to delivering exceptional service and holiday cheer to shoppers nationwide.
To attract a robust pool of applicants, JCPenney offers competitive wages and various perks to its seasonal hires. These benefits include flexible scheduling and employee discounts extending to holiday merchandise. The company is also providing opportunities for seasonal associates to transition into permanent positions post-holiday season, catering to those seeking long-term employment.
“Being part of the JCPenney team during the holidays is not just a job; it’s an opportunity to be part of something special,” Soltau added. “Our seasonal associates play a crucial role in delivering the spirit of the season to our customers, and we are proud to offer them a supportive and dynamic work environment.”
