Additional job fairs will also be held on July 12 (food and beverage positions), July 19 (hotel operations, including spa, golf, pool and housekeeping) and Aug. Positions for the new 4.5-acre pool complex, adjacent bar and grill and new spa will be posted on the Pechanga website July 1. A two-day job fair held there June 15-16 attracted 1,149 applicants, said Ciara Green, a spokeswoman. In anticipation of the expansion completion, Pechanga is working to fill 750 new job positions. Pechanga, already one of the most sizable casino resorts in the area, is doubling its hotel capacity to 1,090 rooms, which will make it the biggest casino hotel in California. Harrah’s Resort Southern California and Barona Resort & Casino are completing more modest expansions. Viejas Casino & Resort and Sycuan Casino are also significantly adding to its facilities, with new hotel towers, pools, restaurants and other amenities in multimillion-dollar projects. Pechanga is one of five area casinos undergoing an expansion.
