14 DAY TRIAL // A continuously and rapidly expanding company such as Apple needs to open as many retail outlets as fast as it can to keep a streamlined business. While UK residents have 18 such outlets to brag about, folks living in the area between Birmingham, Exeter and Southampton, have none. That's why Apple's official website says the company is hiring for an Apple Store in Bristol:
"Join the Team at the Apple Store in Bristol Apple is now recruiting for an upcoming retail store located in Bristol City Centre. If you're looking for a rewarding environment in which to build your career using your special skills and talents, and if working at Apple has always been your dream job, then you might just be one of the passionate individuals we're looking for."
As usual, Apple is looking for a Store Manager, an Assistant Store Manager, creative folks, Mac geniuses, a Concierge (the guy who assists, gives tours etc), Mac Specialists, Personal Shopping Specialists, Business Consultants, Inventory Control Specialists and, of course, Cashiers.
The news comes via ifo AppleStore, the website dedicated to deliver news and information about Apple's retail stores: "Apple's next adventure in UK retail will place a store in the southwestern part of the island, in the city center of Bristol, a city of 410,000 along the Avon River," ifoapplestore.com posts. "The location fills in a huge no-store area between Birmingham, Exeter and Southampton, and would be the 18th store in the country ... The store could open by this November."
It has been confirmed by "insiders" that Apple will locate its upcoming store along a city center street that has a collection of shops and stores called Broadmead. The exact location however, within that development, is yet to be revealed by the Cupertino-based corporation.
As noted above, the upcoming Apple Store in Bristol will be the 18th in the UK.
