Williams-Sonoma going on hiring spree

Williams-Sonoma is looking for a few good people — somewhere in the vicinity of 4,000 to be more exact.



The company will hold its first-ever National Hiring Day, on Thursday, Sept. 14, from 2 p.m. - 7 p.m. local time. The event will be held at all Williams-Sonoma branded stores across the U.S. and Canada.



The retailer will also be accepting online applications for open positions at corporate offices and across supply chain management offices. It expects to interview for approximately 4,000 positions across a variety of roles at Williams Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, PBteen, Rejuvenation, and West Elm stores.



“Culture is a top priority for us at Williams-Sonoma, Inc. We want to be an employer of choice and have a positive presence in the communities where we work,” said Laura Alber, CEO and president. “We are proud that more than 50% of senior leadership across our enterprise is female. We welcome all, and stand for equality for our employees and for our customers.”
