Local Sprouts Farmers Market stores will host walk-in interviews during a National Hiring Day event on Tuesday, Dec. 17 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. The healthy grocer’s interview day will be held across its nearly 340 stores from coast to coast with approximately 1,000 full- and part-time, non-seasonal positions open to meet the demand for its fresh, natural and organic products.

Interviews will be held at each Sprouts location, and available positions can be found at sprouts.com/careers.

As one of the fastest-growing retailers in the country, Sprouts created 3,500 new jobs in 2018 and promoted 28 percent of store team members. Sprouts said it offers competitive pay, team member discounts, a fun and rewarding culture, and opportunities for professional growth. Last year, Sprouts team members saved more than $12 million through store discounts. Sprouts has awarded more than $1 million in scholarships to team members and dependents since 2009.

“Our knowledgeable team members are instrumental as Sprouts expands healthy food access to communities from coast to coast,” said Timmi Zalatoris, vice president of human resources. “These non-seasonal positions across the store offer a great opportunity to learn and grow a career.”

Employment opportunities include department managers and assistant department managers, cashiers, clerks, courtesy clerks and backup receivers and scan coordinators.

Sprouts stores in Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma are not participating in National Hiring Day.
