KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Pilot Co. will host its annual National Hiring Day on Tuesday, April 27, with virtual “meet-and-greets,” seeking to fill more than 5,000 positions in retail, foodservice and professional driving, as well as corporate roles, as more travelers get back on the road this spring and summer.
