NORWICH, N.Y. — Chobani’s first-ever virtual career fair will be held on Tuesday, May 18, between 1 p.m. – 3 p.m. ET, for an opportunity to learn more about the food maker’s special mission and hear about exciting jobs and career opportunities in manufacturing, sales, marketing, and more.
At Chobani, making a difference has never been the job of one person or one team. The food maker believes every team member plays a role in giving back. From the forklift operator to the R&D scientist, the graphic designer or retail sales and execution specialist, each person has a hand in producing our food and using it as a force for good.
“Since day one, we’ve focused on cultivating an energetic work environment that’s shared by more than 2,200 colleagues from diverse backgrounds and cultures,” said Grace Zuncic, Chief People & Culture Officer at Chobani. “We believe that when you’re comfortable being yourself and truly love the work you do, amazing things can happen. We are thrilled to create a virtual career fair to connect with our friends and neighbors who want to learn more about the exciting opportunities at Chobani.”
Job seekers that register for the event can join from any Internet-enabled computer, smartphone or tablet. During the live virtual fair, they will have an opportunity to chat with one of Chobani’s teammates representing their area of interest and may be invited to video or audio chat to further the discussion.
Virtual “booths” will include information about Chobani’s culture and values, the company’s South Edmeston plant and other corporate departments.
