Hey North Myrtle Beach! Big news is buzzing in our lovely town as Amazon is gearing up to open a new 165,000-square-foot facility right here in our backyard! 🎉 Earlier this month, we all got excited about the projected opening date, but hold onto your hats—there’s talk that it might be pushed back slightly. The word from an Amazon spokesperson is that they couldn’t pin down the exact opening day just yet, but they did share some important updates which make this a thrilling time for job seekers and the community alike!
If you’ve been on the hunt for a new job, this is your chance! Amazon is hiring now and they’re offering over 100 full-time positions at the new facility. So, if you’re ready to join the fun, here’s what you need to know about applying:
One of the coolest aspects of working with Amazon is the focus on your growth. Every employee goes through hours of safety training and ongoing coaching. Plus, with Amazon’s Career Choice program, you can take advantage of pre-paid tuition for courses in in-demand fields, whether or not those skills will help you climb the corporate ladder at Amazon. It’s a win-win for your career!
It’s not just about jobs at Amazon—this move is a big boost to our local economy too! Since 2010, Amazon has created an impressive 6,500 full and part-time jobs in South Carolina, along with investing a massive $7.2 billion in infrastructure and employee compensation in the state. These efforts also contributed an additional $7.4 billion to our state’s economy, creating over 7,000 indirect jobs alongside their direct hires. Talk about making an impact!
This new facility isn’t just another building; it’s designed to handle same-day delivery, meaning that you’ll likely receive your orders even faster than before! These smaller fulfillment centers are strategically located close to bustling metro areas, cutting down the distance to customers and making online shopping an even smoother experience. Pretty exciting, right?
As of now, we don’t have specifics on how many of the over 100 available jobs have been filled or how many remain open, but it’s safe to say that this is a great opportunity for many in our community. Stay tuned for further updates, and let’s keep our fingers crossed that the opening goes smoothly!
In the meantime, if you’re interested in working with Amazon, make sure to get your applications in. Who knows, this could be the start of an exciting new chapter for many of us in North Myrtle Beach!
