WHITESTOWN, Ind. – Amazon will be offering on-the-spot job offers next month when it hosts one of the nation's largest job fairs.
The company will be opening up 10 of its sites for the first-ever “Amazon Jobs Day” on August 2 as they attempt to fill over 50,000 roles across their U.S. fulfillment facilities.

“We’re excited to be creating great jobs that offer highly-competitive wages, benefits starting on day one and the chance for employees to go back to school through our Career Choice program,” said John Olsen, Vice President of Amazon’s Worldwide Operations Human Resources.
Amazon says its jobs offer “highly-competitive pay, health insurance, disability insurance, retirement savings plans and company stock.” The company also offers up to 20 weeks of paid leave and “innovative benefits such as Leave Share and Ramp Back, which gives new parents flexibility with their growing families,” according to the site.
