The recently concluded sale of Jaguar and Land Rover from Ford to India’s Tata motors is already making waves, as the new owner announced its wishes to hire 600 new employees for its six facilities in the U.K.
The company is looking for qualified engineers to help it develop and integrate environmentally-friendly technology into the line-up, into which it has recently invested about $1.38 billion. In addition, Jaguar and Land Rover is looking for purchasing, finance and human resources staff. To meet this end, the company will introduce a graduate program that will take on 80 graduates in September, according to an Autocar report.
The new staff is needed to perform the operations a large company like Ford did on a bigger scale for all its brands. With the large-scale hiring blitz, Tata is showing its commitment to keeping its new purchases competitive with other brands, although the new company is now among the smallest volume auto manufacturers.

In other news, all the tech support positions at Dell in Mumbai are available since all the rag heads are going to build Jags and Land Rovers. Maybe we can send all the Mexicans to India to handle the computer tech support. Doesn’t matter who is there working; can’t understand the bastards anyways.

I hear 7-11 has a high turnover… or is that mortality rate.

What about “600 new employees for its six facilities in the UK” did you people not understand?
Too busy being racists to learn how to read?

OK guys, the truth is that Tata will make good on his investment. There is a lot of his own money involved and he made a lot of his fortunes on his own. Jaguar and Rover are lucky brands.

Most of those people who you think are Indians in gas stations are usually Pakistanis.
