Chile to create nearly 2,000 temporary jobs for Día del Niño and Fiestas Patrias

ManpowerGroup Chile projects almost 2,000 short‑term positions to be filled nationwide for two major retail periods. About 450 jobs are expected for the Día del Niño on 9 August, mainly in retail and logistics, with roles such as part‑time and full‑time promoters, commercial executives and warehouse staff. Salaries for these positions range from roughly 380,000 to 1.2 million Chilean pesos, depending on the role and experience.

For the September Fiestas Patrias celebrations, the firm estimates 1,500 temporary vacancies in retail and commerce, including cashiers, store operators, shelf‑stockers and promoters. Net wages are expected to vary between 340,000 and 700,000 pesos. Valentina Mery, ManpowerGroup Chile’s recruitment manager, said the openings “provide a concrete option for formal employment for thousands of people, especially those seeking a first job or re‑entry into the labour market,” and noted that the jobs are open to candidates with or without prior experience.
