Sprint is busy hiring for customer service jobs in Chicago.

Sprint is expanding and will add more than 750 new jobs to neighborhoods throughout Chicago and an expected investment of nearly $150 million by the end of 2016. Today’s announcement builds on the 300 new jobs that Mayor Emanuel and Sprint announced in March 2015 when launching the Sprint for Chicago initiative, which is dedicated to improving customer service and simplifying the brand experience. In total, Sprint expects to add more than 1,000 new jobs in Chicago by the end of 2016.

“Chicago continues to be Sprint’s city of choice for expanding its operations,” said Marcelo Claure, Sprint CEO. “We are in the midst of an historic turnaround at Sprint and as we continue to attract more customers to our network, we need more employees to serve their needs. Our innovative local market approach in Chicago brings us closer to our consumers and allows us to connect one-on-one with them so that we can exceed their expectations and create loyal customers for life.”

“Sprint is doubling down on its commitment to Chicago by adding over one thousand jobs to our city’s economy and further investing in the infrastructure that is bringing both the jobs and the technology to power Chicago’s neighborhoods and communities for the 21stcentury,” said Mayor Emanuel.

Sprint currently employs more than 800 employees and has more than 160 stores across Chicagoland. The announcement not only doubles the company’s headcount but increases network spend from $45 million to nearly $150 million over the next two years in the city of Chicago and $250 million in Chicagoland.
