NASHVILLE, Tenn. (April 15, 2008) – More than one thousand of the sexiest applicants in Music City are needed to audition for 85 positions that will become available soon when Fuse™ …where Sin City meets Music City...explodes onto the scene. The new Vegas-style nightclub opens in June at Gaylord Opryland Resort and 85 of the area's coolest cocktail servers, hostesses, mixologists and doormen are needed to get the club rocking.
A red-hot hiring event for Fuse will be held this Thursday, April 17, 2008, from 1 p.m. - 6 p.m. in the resort's Presidential Chambers. Job candidates should follow the signs at the entrance for parking.

"If you're coming, get ready to be energized by the sizzling atmosphere of Fuse. Just the hiring event itself will be memorable and will be an experience most job seekers will remember for a long time to come," said Theresa Dileo, vice president of human resources, Gayord Opryland Resort and Convention Center.

Applicants will experience a "mock-Fuse" setting with music to set the stage. They can expect to go through a series of rooms, meeting Fuse and Gaylord Opryland personnel, with interviews being conducted on the spot and offers being made to the most outstanding candidates in the crowd.

"We want only '10s'. That means a ten in passion, looks, and attitude," stated Arthur Keith, senior vice president and general manager, Gaylord Opryland Resort and Attractions. "Nightclub experience and cocktail experience are not necessary. We want big personalities and the sexiest servers Music City has seen."

The event is expected to draw hundreds of job seekers. A second hiring activity will be held Wednesday, April 23, at Global Café, located at 322 Broadway in downtown Nashville. Interested applicants are encouraged to pre-register on-line at www.fusenashville.com. Appointment times will be scheduled between 1 p.m. and 6 p.m., but walk-ins will also be welcome.
