UPS plans to hire nearly 690 seasonal workers in the Tucson area to support the expected annual increase in parcel volume, which will begin in October and continue through January.
Positions to be filled include full- and part-time seasonal package handlers, drivers, driver assistants and car drivers, according to a press release.
Qualified candidates could be hired within 30 minutes of submitting an application, the company said.
