In addition to the usual salary and benefits packages, one of the perks for interested parties is that managers receive a 33 per cent merchandise discount.

Hiring is expected to begin in late August. The company will hire an additional 350 employees for sales and support roles beginning in January 2015. Total staffing is expected to be about 400, the company said.

““Canada is a new frontier for us and there will be opportunities to grow with the company as we expand and open stores across Canada,” said John Banks, store manager for Nordstrom Rideau Centre, in the release.

New managers will be brought to Seattle from October to December this year for an all-expense-paid immersion program to learn about the company culture and hear from Nordstrom leaders and have the opportunity to work alongside a mentor manager in a local store. Housing, food and travel will be paid for by Nordstrom.
