Home Depot To Fill 1,900 Positions Across Dallas In Job Fairs

DALLAS, TX — Job seekers in the Dallas area have yet another opportunity to secure employment. This time around, it's Home Depot looking to fill around 1,900 positions in preparation for the spring season.

Matt Harrigan, a spokesperson for Home Depot, told Patch the home improvement retailer sees a huge spike in business during the spring, and that Home Depot wants to make sure stores are prepared to provide good customer service when the influx of customers arrives.
