DeWITT, N.Y. — UPS (NYSE: UPS) says it plans to hire more than 825 seasonal employees in the Syracuse area during its annual “UPS Brown Friday” this weekend.

The hiring event is set for this Friday and Saturday between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. at 6975 Northern Blvd. in DeWitt.

Across the country, UPS plans to hire at least 60,000 seasonal employees with more than 450 in-person and virtual events nationwide where applicants can get hired “in just 25 minutes,” and nearly 80 percent of seasonal positions “do not require an interview,” the company said.

“With major retailers announcing holiday deals long before Cyber Monday, it’s more important than ever that we staff up now to meet the demands of the busy holiday shipping season,” Nando Cesarone, executive VP and president, U.S. operations. “We are well on our way to hiring the 100,000+ seasonal employees we announced in September, and UPS Brown Friday is a three-day sprint that helps us achieve that goal.”

“While seasonal jobs are an opportunity to earn some extra income around the holidays, at UPS they are also a proven pathway to a career,” as nearly 35,000 seasonal employees earned permanent positions following the 2021 holidays, UPS said.
