Samsung is hiring in South Carolina

Tools

GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) Greenville County's top business
recruiter says a unit of South Korea-based Samsung Group will open
a customer service center in the Upstate, hiring 300 people when it
opens in May.

Jerry Howard told The Greenville News on Wednesday that the
center could hire as many as 1,000 workers over the next five
years. Howard is president and chief executive officer of the
Greenville Area Development Corp., which helps recruit businesses
to the area.

Samsung Group did not immediately respond to e-mail requests for
information.

Howard says most of the employees will make more than $14 an
hour; about 80 administrative and executive workers will make
$32,000 to $110,000 a year.

The state Commerce Department provided a $650,000 grant to make
infrastructure improvements at the site.
