蘋果招聘新人研發iWatch



蘋果(Apple)已開始大力招聘人才以解決其“iWatch”手腕電腦的設計問題。此次蘋果引進新的專業人才之時,人們擔心該公司還需要至少一年時間,才能發布史蒂夫•喬布斯(Steve Jobs)去世後的第一種新產品。
熟悉蘋果可穿戴設備計劃的人表示,最近幾周蘋果公司已開始為這一項目“積極”招攬新人,此舉表明蘋果已開始加強研發,不過這也令人們懷疑蘋果原有工程師在可穿戴技術上的研發能力。
由於蘋果正從iPod媒體播放機、iPhone智能手機和iPad平板電腦轉向一個全新品類,該公司正從加州庫比提諾(Cupertino)總部的現有員工以外尋找開發這一產品所需人才。根據一位消息人士的說法,此舉表明蘋果正在努力解決“他們迄今無法解決的高難度工程問題”。
蘋果首席執行官蒂姆•庫克(Tim Cook)仍有可能像對待過去那些被拋棄的創意一樣,決定不推出這一產品。不過,iWatch(蘋果已為這個品牌下的好幾個應用標註了這一商標)如今已從探索階段進展到研發階段,有幾十名員工專職投入研發。熟悉蘋果思路的人表示,此輪密集招聘的時機意味著,iWatch最快也要到明年下半年才能推出。這對一些投資者來說是一個重大打擊,這些投資者急切地想找到證據,證明蘋果的創新者仍具有創造或重定義新產品品類的能力。
