Hewlett Packard (HP), the domestic subsidiary of the world’s biggest IT company, is set to hire 600 people next year for its GeBOC services centre of Bucharest, after having recruited a similar number of people in the first ten months of this year.
“By this October, when the fiscal year ended for HP, we hired
for the 600 new positions we’d announced. We plan to hire a similar
number of people in 2011 as well,” said Alexander Weigl, managing
director with the GeBOC centre.
The company’s representatives say that 2,500 employees work at
present at the centre. HP last year reached 88m-euro turnover and
income worth almost 17m euros, according to Trade Registry
data.
“Whereas three years ago we looked for candidates without
experience for entry-level positions, at present we’re seeking
candidates with at least two years’ experience, with sales and
client relationship abilities,” specified Anca Tapai, a recruitment
manager with HP Romania.
