A new Walmart planning to open this summer on State Road 54 in Wesley Chapel is now in the process of hiring up to 300 people to work in the store.
In anticipation of that opening, Walmart has set up a temporary hiring center at 28211 Paseo Drive, Suite 190, in Wesley Chapel. It will be open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., and weekends from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Those who don’t want to go out physically also can apply online at Careers.Walmart.com.
Walmart says it will give extra attention to military veterans who have been honorably discharged over the last 12 months through its Veterans Welcome Home Commitment. Details of that program can be found at WalmartCareersWithAMission.com.
The new Walmart will be managed by Stephanie White, and will look for both full- and part-time associates.
The majority of the new employees are set to begin work in July to help prepare for the store’s grand opening, Walmart officials said, in a release.
