Irving-based Michaels wants to fill 347 seasonal jobs for its 30 stores in Dallas-Fort Worth.
Wall of yarn at a Michaels arts and crafts store.Arts and crafts retailer Michaels is hiring 15,000 seasonal workers nationwide starting this month. The retailer’s season begins a bit earlier than the rest of retailing since customers buy supplies to decorate for fall and winter holidays and to make gifts.
This year, Michaels plans to increase the average hours available for seasonal workers, “which means more earning potential for those hires,” a Michaels spokesman said. Holiday jobs often lead to permanent positions. Last year, Michaels converted more than half of its seasonal in-store positions to regular jobs.
