Amazon Jobs When and Where Is the Company Hiring In a bid to fill tens of thousands of open warehouse roles, Amazon is holding a series of job fairs in many of the U.S. cities that support its largest operations hubs.

Part-time positions include medical benefits that begin after 90 days and tuition pre-payment. Interested candidates need to bring identification. Guided tours of the facilities (with the exception of Buffalo and Oklahoma City, two new locations) will be held on August 2nd from 8 a.m. â" 12 p.m. local time. Thereâs a dress code.
