Amazon is adding another 2,000 full-time jobs at three fulfillment centers in North Texas, the company says.
Since opening their first fulfillment center in Dallas-Fort Worth in 2013, Amazon has created more than 3,000 full-time jobs.
Amazon said Thursday the newly created full-time jobs are for positions at fulfillment centers in Haslet, Coppell, and its newest facility in southern Dallas.
"Associates at these facilities work alongside innovative technologies—including Amazon robotics—that associates use on a daily basis to fulfill customer orders," the company said in a statement.
Applicants can apply online at http://www.amazon.com/dfwjobs. According to the site, seasonal jobs are available in Coppell starting at $10.75 per hour; full time jobs are available in Haslet starting at $11.25 per hour and part time jobs are available in Irving starting at $11.75 per hour.
Full time jobs are also being offered at the Coppell fulfillment center.
