For those looking for a part-time job, Mercedes-Benz Stadium has an opportunity for you.

The $1.5 billion downtown facility is looking for several hundred part-time workers to staff the behemoth retractable roof stadium, including housekeeping, guest services and parking staff. 

The stadium’s officials will host “draft days” beginning this Friday through next Wednesday at the Georgia World Congress Center in downtown Atlanta.

Mercedes-Benz Stadium will employ an overall staff of about 4,000 and is trying to get most workers in place for its Aug. 26 opening. The stadium's officials declined to say the exact number of jobs available in this round of the "draft."

More specifics on the stadium's hiring plans are available to myajc.com subscribers here.

The three-pointed star and script of “Mercedes-Benz Stadium” glowed for the first time on Thursday morning in an inaugural lighting ceremony.

Healthcare at College Park, a nursing home in Fulton County, GA, stands shuttered with its door chained on July 26, 2025, having closed in recent months.  Researchers at Brown University developed a list of U.S. nursing homes they predicted were at risk of closing based on 2023 data, and would be at elevated risk of closing due to the One Big, Beautiful Bill Act's cuts to Medicaid. Healthcare at College Park was on their list.  It survived past its last federal inspection in August of 2024 but has now closed down. The bill's biggest provisions will roll out over years starting Jan. 1. (Ariel Hart/AJC)
