Salvation Army Hosts July17-18 Job Fair
Wide variety of positions to be filled, from management to truck drivers to cashiers.
The Salvation Army Southeast Adult Rehabilitation Center (ARC) will host a job fair in effort to fill a wide variety of open positions at its 33 Salvation Army Thrift Stores and 3 warehouses throughout southeast Michigan. The job fair will take place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday, July 17 and 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Wednesday, July 18.
“As we continue to grow and open new thrift stores, the need for staff continues to increase,” said Merle Miller, administrator of The Salvation Army Southeast Michigan Adult Rehabilitation Center, which operates the thrift stores. “Given the tight job market, we are pleased to be able to provide employment opportunities throughout the communities we serve.”
The ARC will be conducting on-site interviews and hiring for the full and part-time positions available at the ARC’s 33 thrift stores and 3 warehouses in Livingston, Macomb, Monroe, Oakland, Washtenaw and Wayne counties. Available positions include dock workers, merchandise processors, cashiers and sales clerks, truck drivers and store managers.

Founded by William Booth in London, England, in 1865, The Salvation Army is a faith-based, non-profit organization dedicated to serving people in need without discrimination. The ARC is an integral part of TSA’s mission, and offers substance-abusing adults the opportunity to rebuild their lives through a voluntary, short-term residential self-help program designed to establish a sense of dignity, self-esteem and personal strength that will allow them to resist the desire to abuse a substance and regain their rightful place as contributing members of society. Completely self-funded, the ARC draws its entire operating budget from the revenue of the 33 Salvation Army Thrift Stores located in Southeast Michigan.
