ANN ARBOR – Zingerman’s Deli, the gourmet food company, plans to hire about 300 temporary workers for its baking operation in the coming weeks to help process the company’s holiday mail orders, about 100 more than the year before.
Pat McGraw of Zingerman?s human resources department said the hiring demand this year is typical of most holiday seasons, because the company does a ?huge amount of volume? during the holidays.
McGraw said the seasonal employees, who will work from November until the end of December, will be packing boxes for mail orders or answering mail-order phone calls. They will make about $9 an hour.
?We are starting to hire now and we will do some training for the employees,? she said. ?But the biggest amount of work happens for a week or two before Thanksgiving to the end of December.?
McGraw said some of the employees may be asked to stay on as occasional help for other busy times of the year.
