Beaverton gets HP center
BEAVERTON
Hewlett-Packard, the California-based computer company, has
created a 500-employee call center near downtown Beaverton as
part of a broad effort to improve tech support. HP began hiring
the local employees last fall and completed the process in late
February.
“We chose this area because it’s a rich labor
pool,” says Siobhan Flanigan, HP spokeswoman. The call
center is now fully operational, along with seven others around
the country and internationally. Hewlett-Packard’s
expanded tech support also includes a new customer support
infrastructure, serving customers in 132 countries and 31
languages, and a training pilot program enhancing the
availability of key technology tools.
