Dell Incorporated announced today that it will add as many as one-thousand jobs in Tennessee and expand customer service operations.
Dell CEO Kevin Rollins says most of the new jobs are in sales and technical support.
“They’re higher level than we first started out with. They’re not as entry level, although there will be some folks we hire fresh out of college. But these are going to be in the 30 to 40 thousand dollar job range, so these are good jobs.”
Dell expanded from Texas to Tennessee 6 years ago. Dell currently employs 35-hundred Tennesseans, but plans to increase the number to 45-hundred within roughly a year.
Dell has already begun hiring.
