Wells Fargo to hire 50 in Silicon Valley
Written on July 27, 2010
Wells Fargo & Co. said Monday that it plans to hire 50 people in Santa Clara County.
The San Francisco-based financial giant (NYSE:WFC) has 62 offices and more than 2,000 employees in the Silicon Valley county. Now, it wants to add 40 bankers and 10 tellers.
“We’re seeking candidates who have a passion for exceeding customer expectations and interested in building a career at Wells Fargo,” Ken Jones, the bank’s Santa Clara Valley regional president, said in a statement.
Wells Fargo, which has more than 19,000 employees in the nine Bay Area counties, laid off 201 administrative employees in Santa Clara and Palo Alto in spring 2008 Internet Payday loans. The layoffs were part of Wells Fargo’s closure of two former back offices of the Greater Bay Bancorp holding company, which Wells acquired in October 2007.
Wells, which now has 278,000 total employees, has $1.2 trillion in assets.
