4,000 jobs open in tech: These 23 firms are hiring across the Triangle

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK – Job openings abound at the Triangle’s leading technology employers. And hiring in the state continues to be strong, Brooks Raiford, the president and CEO of NC TECH, told WRAL TechWire on Monday.

“A number of companies have made significant investments here in building out large tech sites, and are attracted to North Carolina’s combination of available talent, quality of life, and cost of doing business,” said Raiford.  And those companies are also increasingly focused on employee retention, not just recruiting, too, as WRAL TechWire reported last week.
