Une touche Optimisme pour le printemps ?


Home Depot is hiring more than 600 San Diego County workers for the spring, the busiest time of the year for home-improvement projects.

Spring is when many homeowners start sprucing up their lawns, planting gardens, and improving their patios to get ready for summer grilling. There are 21 county Home Depot stores and one in Temecula.

Nationwide, the retailer is hiring 70,000 seasonal associates, the same number as last year — a sign that the world's largest home-improvement retailer is taking a conservative view of 2012.

These are temporary positions that typically last for about 120 days, but some associates become permanent employees, according to Atlanta-based Home Depot. About half of the company's 2011 seasonal hires stayed on in permanent positions such as cashiers, sales associates, lot associates and garden associates.
