Apple Embiggening Phone Support Just in Time for…?
Looks like Apple is throwing some telecommuting muscle behind their phone support, with up to 450 “At Home Experts” joining the team just in time for… Well, that’s the big question.
The time frame seems to be from July through September, which sounds a tad late for new iPhone hardware, though if Apple has something extra to announce, something that might take a couple extra months for developers to work on before release, something that does for the ultra-portable market what the iPod and iPhone did for MP3 and smartphones…
Well, then, we’d be rumormongering too. cough iTablet cough iNetbook cough.
Here’s all we do know:
Changing the world is all in a day’s work at Apple. If you love innovation, here’s your chance to make a career of it. You’ll work hard. But the job comes with more than a few perks. If fulfillment, inspiration, adventure and advancement are your kind of perks, we’d love to hear from you.
Like to be around people who love technology? Like to be around technology that loves people? Apple offers a work environment unike any other.
[...]
There’s the typical job. Punch in, push paper, punch out, repeat. Then there’s a career at Apple. Where you’re encouraged to defy routine. To explore the far reaches of the possible. To travel uncharted paths. And to be a part of something far bigger than yourself. Because around here, changing the world just comes with the job description.
What do you think?

The ‘ punch in punch out repeat ‘ bit reminded me that I have to work this weekend O_o
Would love to work for apple.
Why does July seem late? Seems right on target just like last year to me.
Don’t they usually announce in June and rollout the “new” product in late July early September? This seems like a perfect time frame to me.
Hiring in July through September seems late for an iPhone launch. Last year iPhone launched on July 11. Figured they’d need time to train and get people ready in time for the launch, not after it.
(Unless this is just general increase in service, or if they’ve got something else planned for later in the year)
Bullshit
Embiggen, Rene is this a Simpsons reference?
Yeah Rene that’s probably true. It is a little late in a hiring process especially since there will be training involved.
They’ll need to add something to the hardware though all the ppl I’ve asked that have Sprint about getting the Pre they either say no or have never heard of it. I don’t think Sprint will ever catch up!
Rumors are fine, just please don’t keep the pushing the detachable netbook/ tablet that seems to be only a wish of yours.
