Outdoor retailer L.L. Bean is conducting on-site, in-person interviews for more than 100 positions through 5:30 p.m. today at the Hampton Inn & Suites Cincinnati/Kenwood, 2000 Ronald Reagan Drive, Cincinnati.

Applicants should bring a resume and dress appropriately, according to spokeswoman Sara Bloomberg.

All open positions can be found on L.L.Bean's hiring site at https://careers-llbean.icims.com.

The new L.L.Bean store will be opening in Kenwood Collection at 5901 East Galbraith Road, Suite 110, Cincinnati in November, according to spokeswoman Gabrielle Hunt. The location will be hiring more than 100 employees for a variety of positions like stock lead and sales associates, Hunt said.

The store will have an assortment of active and casual apparel and footwear as well as hiking, fly-fishing, kayaking and winter gear and products. It’s part of Freeport, Maine-based L.L.Bean’s effort to expand to 100 stores by 2020.

This store marks L.L.Bean’s third location in Ohio, Hunt said.

This market in particular was attractive to L.L.Bean because of its proximity to outdoor activities, such as the paddling on the Little Miami River and cycling through Devou Park, she said.

Founded in 1912, the family-owned company in March was named by Forbes magazine as America’s Best Midsize Employer, topping the list for 2016.
