Walmart To Hire 100 For Atmore Summer Opening
April 16, 2014
Walmart is looking to hire about 100 people for their new store slated to open this summer in Atmore.
A temporary hiring center is now open from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday at 101 North Main Street. Interested applicants may also apply online at http://careers.walmart.com.
Through Walmart’s Veterans Welcome Home Commitment, the company will offer a job to any qualified veteran who has been honorably discharged within the past 12 months.Interested veterans may find out more at http://walmartcareerswithamission.com.
According to store manager Joe Ferguson, the store will be hiring both full- and part-time associates. “We’re excited to bring the new store to Atmore along with new jobs that oftentimes lead to great career opportunities,” said Ferguson.
Walmart provides a benefits program to eligible full- and part-time associates. For example, it provides a variety of affordable health and well-being benefits including health-care coverage with no lifetime maximum. Walmart also offers eligible associates matching 401(k) contributions of up to six percent of pay, discounts on general merchandise, an Associate Stock Purchase Program and company-paid life insurance. Additionally, eligible associates receive a quarterly incentive based on store performance.
The majority of new associates will begin work in June to help prepare the store for its grand opening.

I am so excited that they are opening this store. Not only is it great to have a Walmart close to where I live it also means I can try to transfer there instead of traveling 75 miles a day to the Walmart on 29.
Kinda funny that people will belly ache about Walmart but those without a job want to work.
Isn’t strange that they already know they will need part time workers??
“…including health-care coverage with no lifetime maximum.”
You can thank Obamacare for that bit. Obamacare makes lifetime coverage limits illegal. Rick Scott would like to take that away from you.
Does anyone know if they will have a pharmacy in this one? Looking to move closer to home…
I heard Fred’s and Burk’s Outlet won’t be reopening.Which other small will have to pack their bags and leave?Theres only so much money to split up.The big boys move in, the little boys have to seek a career change.
I am so very glad we are finally getting a Walmart. I never could understand how we had Wind Creek in a small town as Atmore, but could not get a Walmart. Thanks to all who had a part in letting this happen. Cannot wait till it opens!
