Bass Pro Shops will host an outdoor hiring event September 9 from 9:00 until 1:00.

The Springfield-based sporting and outdoor goods store wants to hire over 100 employees to work at the company’s Distribution Center. The hiring event takes place at the Bass Pro Base Camp, and applicants are asked to stay in their vehicles until being called for an interview. The company says it will conduct on-site health screenings, and masks are required. 

A company statement said those hired before September 11th will be eligible for a $1,000 retention bonus if employed through December 19th. The listed Distribution Center job webpage requires applicants to be at least 18, be able to pass a drug screening, and be able to work on foot for 8 to 12 hours. 

The outdoor hiring event is at 2500 E. Kearney St.
