“We have a variety of jobs and shifts available here in Columbus, and I’d encourage anyone looking for a part-time or full-time job with good pay and benefits to come to the job fair to learn more,” Chelsea Allison, a UPS human resources operations manager, said in a statement. “I’ve seen first-hand that these jobs can be a foot-in-the-door for a great career at UPS.”

UPS said it will hire more than 1,000 seasonal jobs beginning this fall to help handle the holiday shipping rush, the Dispatch said.
