CINCINNATI, OH - Where did October go? Is it just me or does it feel like the spooky season just started and now it’s almost over? Well, one thing is for sure, while Halloween may be basically over, there are still plenty of holidays in the pipeline. To prepare for one of the craziest seasons of the year, Kroger is hiring more than 10,000 associates across its family of stores.

“Holidays are an exciting time for Kroger because food is at the center of every celebration. We are looking for talented, inspired associates who share our vision to serve America through food inspiration and uplift,” said Lanell Ohlinger, Vice President of Talent Development. “Whether a customer is looking for ingredients or ideas, our friendly and caring associates help more than nine million customers every day feel uplifted.”

This season, Kroger is hiring for seasonal career opportunities like customer service, e-commerce, merchandising, operations, and the pharmacy.

"There has never been a better or more exciting time to join Kroger for a job and stay for a career," Ohlinger continued. "We really believe here at Kroger, you have a career with promise."

According to a press release, talent development is a core driver of the company's Restock Kroger plan, which details plans to invest $500 million in rewarding and meaningful benefits for all associates, including wages, training, and development.
