Amazon Canada is hiring, and you get a $100 bonus on your very first day just for showing proof of your COVID-19 vaccination.

On Wednesday, October 27, the company announced the opening of a sorting centre in Coteau-du-Lac, Quebec, which they said is "creating 500 full-time jobs with comprehensive benefits starting on day one."

"With training and skill development programs, a full range of benefits and competitive salaries, Amazon continues its mission to be the best employer on Earth by helping its employees reach their career goals," said Anamaria Zammit, a site leader with Amazon Canada in a press release.

According to a job posting for warehouse team members at the new Quebec location, the hourly pay is between $17.60 and $18.10, and you can also earn up to $3,000 as a sign-on bonus if you start before December 5, 2021.

In terms of qualifications, it's pretty simple; you need to be 18 or older and have a high school diploma, GED, or equivalent diploma.

The company says there are immediate openings for overnight, early morning, day, evening, and weekend shifts, so get to applying!
