We're always hiring because of expansion, about 100 have been hired since I started. Turnover is about average, considering that sales in general has a high turnover rate to begin with and that alot of people are hired right out of school. Wages are alright, again about average for the industry depending on the dept. Yep, the head office is in Liberty Village, I'm actually considering moving there. Softchoice is a pretty good company, just hit the 1 billion mark in revenue last month.

There are lots of computer jobs in the Toronto area right now. If you are looking for something, you need to find a job that fills YOUR needs and expectations.

I'm not sure what's going on in our IT dept. I think we have one or two EE grads in our tech sales dept.
