Tampa International Airport (TPA) will hold an Airport-wide hiring day this Wednesday, January 29, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Nearly two dozen companies are looking to fill more than 400 job openings. The event aims to address the increased passenger traffic expected during the busy Spring Break period.

Among the employers attending are the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), aviation maintenance provider Airborne, and parking services company ABM, which will be meeting with applicants and accepting applications. These companies are specifically looking to hire workers for positions related to airport operations, security, and maintenance.
