Foxconn has begun recruiting workers for a next-gen iPhone , a Chinese-language report claimed Tuesday.
A recruitment firm that works with a Hon Hai (aka Foxconn) plant in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, has begun large-scale recruitment of workers for production of Apple ‘s next-gen phone, according to a report in China Business News.
