Walmart Logistics holding Cornwall, Ontario job fair

Cornwall, Ontario – Walmart Logistics is looking to hire full-time overnight associates to meet growing demand, and has put out a call to recruit more employees for its Cornwall Distribution Hub.

“Our job fairs allow job seekers to apply directly on site and helps us to identify qualified candidates quickly,” says Kayla Steele, human resources administrator with Walmart Logistics.

“Our Cornwall Distribution Hub offers a wide variety of positions and very good opportunities to have a rewarding career in logistics and supply chain management.”

The job fair will be held at the following dates and times:

• Wednesday February 27, 2019
• 10:00am – 5:30pm
• 1501 Industrial Park Drive

The above job fair is part of an ongoing recruitment campaign as the company seeks to attract more workers to Cornwall.

“Cornwall provides a great place to live and work,”  says Steele. “It is a family focused community and its beautiful natural environment supports a healthy lifestyle.”

The Cornwall Distribution Hub supplies Walmart stores throughout Eastern Canada with quality merchandise including grocery products. The Hub is located in the Cornwall Business Park and is also home to the Walmart fleet operations.

This latest recruitment effort follows similar job fairs hosted by Walmart Logistics over the past three years as the company continues to ramp up operations within the Cornwall Distribution Hub.

“The Cornwall Distribution Hub is a respectful, supportive team-based environment where associates can further their careers in warehousing and leadership,” says Steele.

“We offer competitive wages and health benefits, along with company matched pension and stock purchase plans.”

Beyond the distribution centre, opportunities also exist with Walmart Fleet, which transports the goods to Walmart stores throughout Eastern Canada.

“Driving a truck can be a very rewarding career – it is an excellent opportunity to travel and be home with your family on a daily basis,”   says Isabelle Menard, recruitment specialist with Walmart Fleet.

“We are looking for 15 AZ drivers who have 2 years of experience on the road and the flexibility to work evenings, nights and weekend shifts.”
