PNC offering incentives, competitive pay, for 500 open jobs
PNC Arena is looking to fill 500 part-time positions - and it's having to offer some incentives to attract job candidates in this competitive market.
Posted — UpdatedPNC Arena needs to hire hundreds of people in a job market with shortages of workers. If the employee shortage impacts PNC, it could affect your experience at these popular events.
Part-time pay ranges from $10.50 to $20 per hour.
And for the first time, tips will be added through the all-cashless system.
"People when they’re using their credit cards and debit cards tend to tip more and it’s great for our workers and another incentive for people to come back and work," said Waddell.
Aside from financial incentives, PNC is also working to ensure people would feel safe coming to work there.
All employees will have to wear masks, which are only "recommended" for guests.
"I think everything we do here, if we do it right, people are going to feel comfortable coming back out and have a good time," he said.
Waddell said most companies have been struggling to hire employees in the wake of the pandemic.
The Arena is holding a job fair here one week from today: Thursday, August 12 from 3 to 6 p.m.
Some jobs are open to teenagers as young as 16.
