Electronic Recyclers International (ERI), the nation’s leading recycler of electronic waste, plans to hire 125 new employees in two of its fast-growing locations prior to this year’s holiday season.

The company’s Badin location, northeast of Albermarle, will hire 75 people. The company is also hiring 50 people at its site in Texas.

ERI has set up an interactive resume submission section on its website, www.electronicrecyclers.com/about-us/careers.aspx, which enables applicants to submit a resume for any position online.

“Our business is growing fast and we continue to expand at each of our locations around the country,” said John Shegerian, ERI’s Chairman and CEO. “Every year around the holidays we see a huge influx of unwanted electronics being discarded to make way for new and incoming gifts. We need more people to handle this surge now and who can develop their careers with us moving forward.”

Shegerian said that a wide array of positions are available, including CRT Dismantler, E-Scrap Sorter, Forklift Operator, Repair Specialists and many other warehouse positions.
