Details will be provided on compensation and benefits, including:
o Healthcare

Dealers can further accelerate their base pay by learning multiple games, including baccarat, roulette and craps. Each additional game moves dealers up the pay scale and adds variety to their workday—while giving the casino more options for mutually beneficial scheduling.
“This is an incredible opportunity for recent graduates and for those who have a passion for gaming,” said Eric Althaus, general manager at Rivers Casino Philadelphia. “With the highest-known base pay for dealers in Pennsylvania, Rivers is a great place to start a career.”
Prospective Team Members/Candidates are encouraged to start the application process by visiting the careers page at RiversCasino.com/Philadelphia before attending the job fair.
