Hard Rock to hire 800 workers by year's end

The Hard Rock Hotel will hire 800 more workers by the end of the year to complete staffing for the property's $750 million expansion, the property announced late Tuesday night.

The niche property, which will open two new hotel towers and other amenities, has already hired 400 workers this year.

The positions to be filled include on call dealers, housekeeping staff, bellmen, front desk and room reservation agents and environmental services attendants.

The Hard Rock Hotel will announce dates for job fairs to be held at the property through the summer soon.

800 workers to be hired and then after the newness wears off, 400 will remain. That's the reality, but more power to them!

They will hire internal transfers first i am sure! Why do they advertise they are hiring so many positions when it will be half the amount!

Big deal - 900 workers at $7 an hour. That will really help the economy. How many upper level jobs are they offering up? Zero.

They will keep the people that do the job the right way and let go of the one's that don't.

400 positions have been filled.

Yeah the good jobs have already been filled and now they have 800 crap positions open for those illegal immigrants looking for a job that Americans won't do for $7.00 per hour.
