After Disney announced layoffs for hospitality workers at its Orlando resorts, the Oneida Indian Nation partnered with Oneida County on the “New Year, New Career” campaign to fill more than 250 positions by targeting areas impacted the most by the pandemic, including Orlando, New York City, and Atlantic City.
The Oneida Nation said it created the campaign to “complement” its ongoing hiring efforts in the upstate region.
More than 100 people have accepted offers so far, including more than 70 Central New Yorkers, close to 30 individuals who relocated from Orlando, and “numerous” referrals from the Orlando recruits.
The open positions include full-time jobs, which are a combination of salaried and hourly positions. The roles include dealers, culinary, bartenders, restaurant and cocktail servers, hotel staff, housekeeping, and other gaming positions.
