As the iPhone 6 enters production over the next few months, a new report claims that Apple manufacturing partners Foxconn and Pegatron are in the process of recruiting new employees from mainland China. Foxconn in particular is said to be hiring a record-breaking 100,000 employees to help assemble the smartphone, which could be released in both 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch models…
If the Economic Daily News report (via Reuters) proves true, it would mark the largest single hiring spree that Foxconn has ever had. Pegatron will also be expanding its workforce by at least 30 percent in one mainland factory, also coinciding with high demand for the iPhone 6. Foxconn will reportedly manufacture 70 percent of the new iPhones, while Pegatron is tasked with producing the remaining 30 percent.
