Which Major Companies Are Each Hiring more than 5,000+ New Workers

With millions of Americans unemployed and many coming to this site to get information on enhanced unemployment benefits, I thought it would be helpful to provide some positive news around several companies that have publicly announced that they’re implementing massive hiring plans over this summer as the economy and consumer spending rebound following the Coronavirus induced slowdown. So without further ado here is a list of various companies that have publicly announced their upcoming hiring plans. If you know of any other large or new organizations not listed below please leave a comment below.

While many of the jobs may be for lower wage roles, significant middle to senior management opportunities are also available. To apply for a job at one of these companies go to their website (find their careers page) or go to a major job site (e.g. Linkedin) and apply for roles that meet your search criteria. An even better option is to try and find someone in your professional or personal network that works at one of these companies and can submit your application as an internal referral. That vastly improves the chance of you getting an interview for the role. Despite all the doom and gloom, the good news is that jobs are available.
