CALGARY (660 NEWS) – If you’re looking for work, Lowes is launching a major hiring blitz.

The company says it’s looking to fill over 7,000 full and part-time positions at Lowes, Rona, and Reno-Depot stores across the country.

Close to a thousand of those workers will be hired in Alberta, but there is no breakdown yet of how many jobs are available in Calgary.

The company says there’s been a big interest in home improvement over the last year, and they’re hiring because it’s their busiest season.
