For several weeks, the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), initiated a hiring process within the team hell which will administer the advertisements that will run in iTunes Radio. The imminent launch of the service forced those from Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), to look for people capable of selling the advertising spaces available for the service, but also to maintain the advertisements that will run through them. Apart from these, Apple is looking for managers who can best combine the experience of using the service with the viewing of advertisements, several job offers being listed by those from Cupertino.
Apple had posted five iAd-related jobs to its own job board and another 35 to LinkedIn just in the month of August as of Friday. The openings are for a variety of jobs including account coordinators, ad design managers, project managers and engineers who will create new rich media ads for iAd. In addition, Apple appears to be hiring ad execs with creative experience to help brands and agencies create better ads for its expanding iAd advertising network.
Considering that Apple is going to launch iOS 7 in about 2 weeks and iTunes Radio will be officially available to users in the US and beyond, it is normal for the hiring process to be accelerated. So far, Apple has managed to convince enough big brands to sign collaboration contracts for iTunes Radio, and if the service is successful, then it will be extended to even more countries.
