Walmart apparently accidentally posted job listings that it is looking for cashiers, merchandise stockers, pharmacists and food handlers in Jerusalem.
The listings, however, were for the retail chain’s stores in the Illinois towns of Salem and Zion.
“We are working to clarify the discrepancy,” a spokesperson told Calcalist, which reported in March that Walmart CEO Doug McMillon and a group of senior executives were in Israel to discuss the possibility of opening a location in the Jewish state.
Walmart has invested in Israeli startups and recently acquired Israeli startup Aspectiva Ltd.
In October, the retailer said it would invest reportedly $300 million in “interactive multimedia video creation and distribution firm Eko” to create “an original interactive content venture,” reported Calcalist.
That same month, the U.S. company became an investor in Team8 LLC, a think-tank and company creation platform.

The whole Walmart is fake news. The store sells mamesh nothing. It’s all a PR marketing team that created this fake illusion that Walmart is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Living in Brooklyn, we don’t have a Walmart, but when I travel out of town, I’ve stopped into their stores a few times and found inferior quality products at lousy prices. I purchased a tee shirt and a pack of tube socks. That’s it. It’s a perfect store for white trailer park folks.
