On Wednesday, Amazon hosted a colossal, nation-wide jobs fair - Amazon is billing it as the largest in the US.

In an effort to fill 50,000 warehouse jobs at the company, the online retail giant invited people across the county to tour 10 of its warehouses and apply for these jobs in person.

The Robbinsville, New Jersey, warehouse alone had 1,500 jobs up for grabs, according to local news outlet NJ.com. When we stopped by, we watched as hundreds of people turned out to try to snag a role.

Here's what we saw during Amazon Jobs Day at the Robbinsville warehouse:
