Employees currently on furlough through Rivers Casino Pittsburgh are welcome to apply.

"The program at CCAC does an outstanding job of preparing candidates to work as dealers at Rivers Casino. We’re grateful for the chance to offer students who successfully complete dealer training classes a new career opportunity in the gaming industry and can’t wait to get some new Team Members on board," said Michael Higgins, vice president of human resources at Rivers Casino Pittsburgh.

Rivers Casino offers part-time dealers benefits including paid time off, paid breaks throughout each shift, up to two earned personal days per year, paid holidays throughout the year, and participation in the 401(k) plan with a generous company match. Candidates must be able to work shifts, weekends and holidays.

Interested dealer school participants can learn more details and apply online at RiversCasino.com/Pittsburgh/Careers. Applications submitted after Nov. 1 will be considered for future classes. The next class will be in January 2021.
