Pepsi plans on quickly hiring a plethora of workers in Coke Country, the company said Wednesday.

Coca-Cola’s rival is “aggressively and quickly looking to make new temporary hires in the Atlanta community,” the company said.

The positions include driver, merchandising, and warehouse loader. The company said it is committed to making the hiring process quick.

“In a time where people are out of work, or in need of financial income and support, and to help ease the added workload pressure of its current front-line employees,” the company said.

People interested in applying are encouraged to do so here.
