MOORESVILLE – Lowe’s is looking for new employees and plans to hire more than 50,000 in one day.
“National Hiring Day” is set for next Tuesday. Those interested in one of the seasonal, part-time or full-time jobs can apply in person at a Lowe’s store between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m.
The company says it will “hire more than 700 new associates across its Raleigh-Durham stores,” a company spokesperson said.
Some offers will be made “on-the-spot,” Lowe’s said in an announcement Thursday.
