Amazon to hire 100000 temporary Christmas employees
http://www.smh.com.au/business/world-business/amazon-to-hire-10
Amazon.com Inc. is hiring 100,000 seasonal workers -- 25 per cent more than
last year -- as it continues to make online ordering almost as fast as
running to the store.
The short-term hires will supplement 90,000 permanent employees at Amazon's
70 warehouses and shipping hubs around the country to get through the
retailer's busiest quarter, the Seattle-based company said in a statement
Tuesday.
Analysts on average expect Amazon to generate $US35.1 billion in fourth-
quarter revenue, up 20 per cent from a year earlier, according to data
compiled by Bloomberg.
The largest online retailer will report third-quarter results on Thursday.

The largest online retailer on Thursday will report third-quarter results,
which will include its first Prime Day promotion, a one-day blowout sale in
July. Amazon said it sold more products on Prime Day than on Black Friday
during last holiday season.
Amazon has expanded same-day delivery to 12 US cities, requiring the company
to build new shipping hubs closer to urban areas. It also is delivering
meals from restaurants in Seattle and Portland and has created crafts
marketplace Amazon Handmade to compete with Etsy and EBay as the retailer
seeks new revenue sources.
Amazon's extensive network of warehouses close to customers puts the company
far ahead of retail competitors, Scot Wingo, chairman of e-commerce
consultant ChannelAdvisor Corp., wrote in his blog.
As Amazon decreases delivery times and costs, "other retailers are going to
struggle to come close," Wingo wrote. |
