BT in jobs boost [Evening Times (Glasgow, Scotland)]


(Evening Times (Glasgow, Scotland) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Telecoms giant BT is to create 500 engineering jobs at its Openreach division amid increasing rollout of its fibre broadband programme.

Openreach said it recently received 26,000 applications for 1600 engineering jobs.

The new posts will mainly be based in Aberdeen, London and Surrey, with half the new intake working on customer service.



Some recruits will work on fibre broadband for new housing developments and installing an ultra-fast service for medium and large businesses.

Chief executive Joe Garner said: "We've had a terrific response to previous recruitment campaign." (c) 2014 ProQuest Information and Learning Company; All Rights Reserved.
