Apple Hires India Workers Ahead of First Physical Store Opening

From CNET: Apple has begun hiring employees for upcoming physical stores in India.

The tech giant currently has a dozen live job listings for brick-and-mortar stores at "various locations" across the South Asian country. According to a Financial Times report at least five people confirmed that they've been hired to work at upcoming stores via posts on LinkedIn.

The timing of Apple's hiring effort seems to lend credence to earlier reports, which said the company's inaugural brick-and-mortar store is scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2023 following several delays. A July ETTelecom report said India's teeming financial capital of Mumbai will be the home of Apple's flagship store, which is reported to be a 22,000-square-foot store at an upscale shopping mall.

Apple declined to comment on a timeline for the opening of its first brick-and-mortar store in India.
