Tech giant Apple is set to expand its retail operations in India by hiring 400 new employees for its upcoming stores in Bengaluru, Pune, Delhi-NCR, and Mumbai. The company has listed a range of job openings on its website, with the aim of filling these positions before the stores’ anticipated launch next year, as reported by Moneycontrol.
The job listings include both full-time and part-time roles, similar to those available at Apple’s existing stores in Mumbai and Delhi. Part-time opportunities are specifically targeted towards fresh graduates seeking experience in working with a large corporation. These graduates will have the flexibility to take up various shifts at Apple stores.
Apple’s BKC store in Mumbai and Select City Walk store in Delhi currently employ around 90-100 individuals, including part-time employees working in shifts. The company plans to hire a similar number of employees for its new stores in Bengaluru, Pune, Delhi-NCR, and Mumbai. Apple’s recruiters have already started attracting talent through job sites, including LinkedIn.
An Apple India recruiter expressed excitement about the company’s expansion across Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, and Bengaluru, stating, “We are looking to talk to people across many roles.”
The decision to expand its retail operations in India comes after the success of Apple’s BKC outlet in Mumbai and Select City Mall store in Delhi. These two stores reportedly generated approximately ₹800 crore in revenues in their first year, with 60% of sales coming from the smaller Delhi store.
