The discounter will be looking to hire more than 25,000 workers for its Dollar Tree and Family Dollar stores and the company’s U.S. distribution centers during the hiring event, which will be held Monday, Oct. 19, through Friday, Oct. 23. 

The company is looking to fill permanent full-time and part-time store openings in the roles of store managers, assistant store managers, cashiers, and stocking associates, as well as seasonal holiday help.
