CHANDLER, Ariz. (May 2, 2023) – Gila River Resorts & Casinos is hosting jobs fairs in May and June to
hire 700 positions. The new and existing roles are available at all four locations including Lone Butte,
Wild Horse Pass, Vee Quiva and the soon to be open Santan Mountain Casino. Job fairs kickoff on
Tuesday, May 2 and will run through Friday, June 29 at various locations throughout the Valley including
Sacaton, Casa Grande and Coolidge. Positions are available in all departments including security, guest
services and gaming operations. Santan Mountain Casino is expected to be open in late June.
Interested candidates are encouraged to apply for positions online, bring two forms of identification and
four references to the job fairs for same day interviews.
Newly hired team members will receive state of the art education with virtual reality training. The virtual
reality program was designed to give each team member a 3-D view of the entire enterprise. Team
members can experience the sights and sounds of the gaming floors, resorts and back of house through
innovative technology. This one of a kind HR technology is new to Phoenix and the gaming industry and
was produced by local production company Point In Time Studios.
“With the privilege to hire and train 700 new team members, it was only natural to elevate the
experience by upgrading our technology with a fun and unique program,” said Dominic Orozco,
president and CMO of Gila River Resorts & Casinos. “The virtual reality program gives us the opportunity
to teach Gila River’s mission, history and values through a memorable and innovative video game like
experience that targets a younger demographic of team members. We couldn’t be more excited to
unveil this technology ahead of the Santan Mountain grand opening and to welcome new Moment
Makers to the Gila River family.”
