ARIZONA — With the holidays rolling around, on Monday, Amazon announced it is hiring people for 150,000 seasonal jobs across the U.S. including 6,200 in Arizona, with starting pay of $18 per hour.

The seasonal roles in Arizona are in addition to the 7,500 full- and part-time operations jobs Amazon announced in September will be available in Arizona as the multinational e-commerce company founded by billionaire Jeff Bezos continues to expand.

“We are proud to be offering a huge range of full-time, part-time and now seasonal jobs with great pay and benefits,” said Alicia Boler Davis, senior vice president of global customer fulfillment. “Our seasonal hiring helps us deliver on our promises to customers while also providing flexibility to our full-time employees during busy periods. Joining Amazon in one of our seasonal roles offers high-paying, part-time work or a path to a full-time position, with benefits like our Career Choice program to help people advance their education and careers within Amazon or beyond.”

Jobs in Amazon’s operations network include stowing, picking, packing, shipping and more. New hires will be fully trained and all facilities follow strict COVID-19 health and safety protocols.
Seasonal employees will help support full-time employees across more than 250 new fulfillment centers, sortation centers, regional air hubs, and delivery stations that opened in the U.S. in 2021.

States with the greatest number of seasonal roles include: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia.

The company also provides full-time employees comprehensive benefits from the first day, worth an additional $3.50 per hour, including health, vision and dental insurance, 401(k) with a 50 percent company match, up to 20 weeks of paid parental leave and Amazon's Career Choice program, in which the company will pay full college tuition for its frontline employees as part of a $1.2 billion investment to expand education and skills training benefits for its U.S. workforce.
Delivery stations also offer entrepreneurs the opportunity to build their own business delivering Amazon packages.
