Looking for a job? Amazon's hiring 120,000 holiday workers

Amazon uses a mix of people and robots in its warehouses. The online retail giant announced Thursday that it plans to add 120,000 seasonal workers this holiday season. The jobs will be all across the U.S, with the company looking to bolster its fulfillment centers, sortation centers and customer service sites in advance of the yearly shopping madness. Last year the company added 100,000 holiday workers, of which over 14,000 became full-time employees, a number the company expects to grow this year. In a note sent out in September, Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster estimated that 44% of the U.S. population now lives near an Amazon warehouse or delivery station.
