HOUSTON – Demand for workers is soaring as companies are trying to get back to business as usual. With millions of Americans still collecting unemployment benefits, some employers are getting creative to lure potential candidates back to work.
Texas-based H-E-B is looking to hire 150 full-time employees right now as selectors in its warehouse on the northwest side of Houston. Like hundreds of other employers, H-E-B is sweetening the pot.
The starting pay for the full-time job is $17.50 an hour. If you work nights, you can earn .50 more an hour. Working weekends will get you another $1.00 an hour, and working in the freezer section of the warehouse gets you another $1.00 an hour. That means entry-level new hires can start at $20 an hour. New employees will get a $500 bonus, and health benefits begin on their very first day on the job.
If you are interested in applying, go to careers.Heb.Com or text “Selector” to 8-1931.
