Apple Store Mexico Posts 13 Job Openings

With the coming of an Apple retail store in Mexico, the multinational technology company has announced 13 vacancies for its new branch.

According to De10.mx, one of the major job positions offered is a store leader who will function as the coordinator of the teams who will interact with customers to offer and sell their products.

Other job openings include service specialist, inventory specialist, creative instructor, manager, business manager and market leader.

For the market leader, Poder PDA said Apple is looking for a person who can develop individuals in a team in helping the growth of Apple Stores. This candidate should show leadership and strategies needed for the new branch to excel.

Meanwhile, a service specialist should be able to help customers maximize their use of the Apple technology.

Unocero said that, after rumors surfaced that Apple will have its first Apple Store in Mexico City, the company confirmed the news.

"We are very excited to begin the process of hiring the team that will open our first Apple Store in Mexico, a country rich in art, culture and history. We are excited to provide our valued customers in Mexico City service, training and entertainment that Apple customers around the world love," Apple was quoted by the same report.

There is still no news on where the first branch in Mexico will be. However, MacRumors earlier claimed that the first store in Mexico City will be built in Centro Santa Fe, the biggest shopping mall in Latin America.

The second is believed to be located in a prominent shopping stop in the city and will reportedly adopt the design of Apple in its stores in Dubai, Brussels and Cupertino.

It was noted in an RCR Wireless report that Apple will also have stores in Guadalajara and Monterrey, Mexico.

These stores, as per MacRumors, are part of the 25 "global flagship" retail stores that the company is planning to establish, along with the renovation of some of its major retail shops in the United States.

AppleInsider also detailed that, after the opening of stores in Mexico, other shops will open in other South American countries like Argentina, Peru and Chile. The report's source claimed that there are already two physical Apple Stores in Brazil -- Rio and Sao Paulo, which became the "testing ground" for devices to be introduced in the country.

It also noted that the entry in Mexico had been planned by Apple as early as 2007 when representatives reportedly negotiated a space lease in the Torre Mayor building.
