The holidays at Zingerman's Mail Order are crazy, but fun. We grow from a crew of 150 to an organized swarm of nearly 500. People come to work here from all walks of life. Moms, dads, students, retirees, landscapers, dancers. Some people are in between jobs. For some, this is their first job. Some people come because they want to work with us for the long term. For some, it's to get some extra Christmas money. Any reason is fine with us. No experience necessary. Nearly everyone who works here started as a part of a holiday crew.
We'd love for you to join us.

What kinds of things do you do in this job?
There are a lot of jobs in the warehouse.
- There are pickers who select the items.
- There are route runners who roam the warehouse to bring pickers the food, like olive oil and coffee cakes.
- There are checkers, the detail-oriented people (you know who you are!), who check box contents to make sure they are perfect.
- There are packers who perform feats of three dimensional Tetris to fit the foods in the box.
- There are the stackers who fill the truck with boxes, playing more 3D Tetris (sorry if we're dating ourselves!).
- There are cheesemongers who cut great big wheels of cheese into beautiful little wedges.
- Plus many, many more.
