More than 25 companies at Tampa International Airport are looking to fill hundreds of jobs at the upcoming Airport-wide Hiring Day on Tuesday, Sept. 27.

TPA’s business partners including FedEx, Airborne, the Transportation Security Administration, Southwest Airlines, and Virgin Atlantic will be accepting applications from 9 a.m. to noon at the Airport’s Main Terminal Event Space (Level 3), between the shuttles for Airsides E and F.

Full- and part-time jobs are available with some positions paying up to $41 an hour. Participating companies represent different areas of the airport operation including cargo, aircraft maintenance, dining, retail, parking, and car rentals.

The Hillsborough County Aviation Authority, which operates Tampa International Airport, will also be looking to fill open positions across several departments.

“Travel is on the rise at TPA and we need the best talent to maintain our reputation as America’s Favorite Airport,” said TPA’s Executive Vice President of Operations and Customer Service John Tiliacos. “We’re eager to help our partners boost staffing levels in preparation for the busy holiday season.”

Hiring managers suggest bringing multiple copies of your resume and two forms of ID, in case you are hired at the event. Parking will be validated for the Long Term Parking Garage.

More than 500 candidates attended the last Airport-wide Hiring Day on Feb. 15, with companies offering dozens of jobs on the spot.
