ATLANTIC CITY — A new casino wants to offer a lifeline for workers who lost their jobs in the past year in Atlantic City.
All it would take for someone licensed to work in a casino is a willingness to move nearly 8,000 miles from New Jersey, according to a report.
Saipan's Best Sunshine International Casino, which is opening next month on Sapian, an island in the South Pacific, plans to hire at least 180 workers from the U.S. for positions such as dealers, cashiers and shift managers.
Perks of the job include free travel to and from Sapian, health insurance, a meal on every work shift and free housing, PressofAtlanticCity.com reported.
Renard International Hospitality Search held a job fair Wednesday and will run another one Thursday at the Sheraton Atlantic City Convention Center Hotel, the report said.
Anyone willing to uproot to the U.S. Commonwealth in the Northern Mariana Islands by July 10 to help open the casino is also being offered a signing bonus. Pay starts at $40,000 for dealers; supervisors can earn from $45,000-$75,000.
Four Atlantic City casinos closed in 2014; eight are still operating.
