(WXYZ) - Looking for a job? Home Depot may be looking for you.

The world's largest home improvement retailer announced it has begun the hiring process to fill more than 70,000 positions for spring; the company's busiest selling season.

"Just as the Christmas rush and holiday hiring ends for many retailers, we begin recruiting for spring seasonal associates to help customers during our busiest selling season," said Tim Crow, executive vice president for Human Resources. "And a seasonal job at The Home Depot can often lead to a regular position if you're passionate about customer service."

The company says about half of its seasonal hires in 2011 went on to become permanent employees with the company.

Hiring will take place over the next several weeks on a market-by-market basis.
