Well Mankato got some good news today. Alltell Wireless is hiring 130 more people to staff its tech-support center in Mankato. (Alltell bought Midwest Wireless two years ago and the call canter was part of the purchase.)
Alltel said that strong sales and the quality of Minnesota’s workforce spurred it to expand the call center. That’s nice – but I bet broadband didn’t hurt – although with Alltell I suppose either it’s an assumption.
Now we just have to get the word out to more businesses about our pockets of broadband and high quality staff.
