Career opportunities at Corrigan Moving Systems will abound this spring as the moving firm begins to go on a hiring spree.
The Farmington Hills-based company is hiring 200 people this spring to help with the moving season this summer and fall. Most of the hires are for laborers and drivers who work on a part-time basis. Think college students or young people fresh out of high school.
"Every summer we hire a lot of part-time people," says David Corrigan, president of
Corrigan Moving Systems. "That's what we’re doing again this summer."
Those part-time positions are often just summer jobs for young people. However, Corrigan says about 10 percent of those people who take the summer jobs parlay those into full-time gigs for the moving company. In years past that meant about a dozen jobs, but the company's recent growth spurt means there are even more opportunities for advancement this year.
"Our business has been growing so we need more than we used to," Corrigan says. "We only needed 100-110 a year ago. This year we need every one of 200 people."
