Target has opened a hiring office and is taking applications for cashiers, backroom stockers, floor personnel, managers and other positions, according to the new Petaluma store manager, Ricardo Blanco.
"We can't guarantee a full-time job," he said, adding that the store will have both part-time and full-time positions available.
The retail giant is scheduled to open mid-July and is looking to hire an estimated 200 people. Target will hold a job fair May 30 through June 1 at the Petaluma Sheraton and urges interested applicants to apply online prior to arrival.
