Target Looks To Fill 80 Jobs At New Burlington Store

BURLINGTON, MA -- Target said Monday it has begun hiring for a new store that will open in Burlington on October 21. The company is looking to fill 80 positions at the store at the Crossroad Plaza, which will occupy space of the Roche Brothers supermarket that closed last year. Target is also opening another "small-format" store in Cambridge around the same time the Burlington store opens.

"Our commitment to providing guests with the best shopping experience possible begins with building a talented and motivated team. We are looking for 80 team members who are interested in innovating, contributing ideas and discovering solutions that enhance the shopping experience," store manager Sarah Gaskill said in a news release.

The company is holding a series of job fairs for the store at 28 Cambridge Street on the following dates:

• Aug. 20, 22, 24 and 25 from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
• Aug. 21 and 23 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Managers will be on hand to interview prospective employees and answer questions. Applicants can apply before the job fair dates at Target.com/careers.
