Last month, Fortune released its annual "100 Best Companies to Work For" list. Wegmans, which has made the list every year, placed third.

"We are so grateful for our dedicated employees who have made us a part of this list for the past 23 years," Wegmans President and CEO Colleen Wegman said in a statement. "Our people make shopping and working at Wegmans a truly special experience every day. We celebrate and thank them for all they do to earn this incredible honor."

Wegmans is now hiring for its first location in the Hudson Valley. Wegmans will open on Sunday, June 7 in Westchester County. The Wegmans will be located at 106 Corporate Park Drive in Harrison, near I-287 and the Hutchinson River Parkway.

Wegmans is holding a "Hiring Event" for its Westchester County location on Tuesday. The event goes from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 133 Westchester Avenue Suite N222 in White Plains. If you can't make the event, the company has many openings listed on its website.

“We’re looking for friendly people who are enthusiastic about food and eager to help our customers enjoy delicious, easy meals,” Wegmans Store Manager Matthew Dailor said. “We’ll provide all the training needed to be successful because our employees receive some of the most in-depth product, service, and culinary education in the industry.”

In January, the company announced it's looking to fill 280 part-time positions and 220 full-time jobs for its Lower Hudson Valley location.
