WEST COLUMBIA, S.C. (WACH/AP) – More jobs are coming to the Midlands, as Amazon is planning to expand it’s workforce for its West Columbia warehouse.

The Internet retailer is telling people interested in employment to go to their website, click on the careers tab, and choose the West Columbia, SC location.

Amazon will then contact the applications that fit their criteria and schedule interviews over a two day period next week.

The retailer is also expanding its West Columbia operations and building two new warehouses in Spartanburg and North Charleston.

Amazon promises to bring 2,000 jobs to South Carolina by the end of 2013.
