Kohl's prepares for Sept. 29 Carson City grand opening
After 3,000 people applied for 130 positions last month, Kohl's department store in Carson City is preparing for a Sept. 29 grand opening.
The store is located in the old Mervyn's building at 3871 South Carson Street in the Eagle Station center next to Raley's. The company held a series of job fairs from Aug. 8-12.
The Wisconsin-based company is hiring temporary part-time credit associate positions for the Carson store, according to its website.
Despite the recession, Kohl's continues to see modest profits, with a 7.7 percent increase in August over August 2009. Year-to-date, total sales increased 9 percent, according to its website.
