With its influx of popular new products made in the US, Ford Motor Company (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/) has announced that it intends to hire 2,200 new salaried workers domestically this year. This is the biggest increase of salaried workers for Ford in the last 10 years, and it is all a part of Ford's contract commitment to the United Auto Workers (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/uaw/) union to bring 12,000 new jobs to the US by 2015.

There were no specifics as to where in the US these job openings will be, but Ford did reiterate that it will be spending $773 million on equipment upgrades and capacity expansion at six plants located in southeast Michigan; as a whole, Ford is investing a total of $6.2 billion to its US assembly plants over the next couple years. According to recently appointed president of the Americas Joe Hinrichs, the new jobs will be focused on areas such as engineering, manufacturing and computer software. Ford will post its job openings online at careers.ford.com (http://www.careers.ford.com/), and it will also use social media sites like Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/FordMotorCompanyCareers) and Twitter (http://twitter.com/FordCareers) to recruit new workers, including military veterans.
