| Help Wanted: Verizon Wireless Updated: 11/15/2003 6:51:01 AM By: Angela Black Would-be wireless workers in Houston should listen for the sound of opportunity ringing. Verizon Wireless is looking to hire new people before the New Year. This is in response to expected high holiday sales and the increased customer activity that will be created by the local number portability that goes into effect this month. That new regulation, mandated by the FCC, will allow customers to keep their existing wireless phone numbers even if they switch carriers. So what does it take to work for Verizon, and what can you expect in return? "Knowledge of the wireless industry and wireless phones is helpful, computer skills are very helpful. The most important thing is customer service skills and a smile, the right attitude," said Verizon spokesperson Macy Bodenhamer. "Verizon wireless offers a very competitive salary package, as well as, extensive benefits, 401K, investment plans, as well as wireless discounts." Verizon is the largest wireless phone company in the country, and it has about 1,750 employees right here in Houston. Before the new year, the company plans to hire about 250 new wireless workers, and most of them will work in customer service. About 45 others will be hired for sales, in addition to those hired for customer service and technical support teams. Tiffany Cooper is going through training at Verizon headquarters. "But I've been very impressed. And the coaching and feedback is great because I always know, you know, what's expected of me and what I'm doing and what I can improve upon. So, I love it. I would definitely encourage other people to apply to Verizon Wireless, it's a very good company," said Cooper. And it's a company that will continue to expand. "We're really excited to be able to create these new positions -- 250 new employees. We're continuing to grow. We really recognize the value of our existing employees, and we're ready to tap into the additional talent pool that's here in Houston," said Bodenhamer.

They'll be making about 200 new hires before the new year. | ||
