Western Wats Expands in Three States

Orem, Utah-based data collection firm Western Wats has announced plans to create 170 new jobs in Casa Grande, AZ; Pittsburg, KS; and Brookings, SD.

The company, which recently closed its call center in Wayne, Nebraska as part of a consolidation of its smaller operations into larger call centers, says demand for telephone data collection is increasing.

The expansion in Casa Grande will add another 100 employees to the current total of 185, while 30 part-time jobs will be added in Pittsburg and 40 in Brookings.

COO Tim DeGraw comments: 'We have appreciated our partnership with these communities for several years and are pleased to announce the expansion. Our continued growth validates our commitment to quality telephone interviewing.'

Founded in 1987, Western Wats manages and maintains online panels across North America and Europe, along with telephone interviewing centers in the USA and the Philippines. Web sites: www.westernwats.com and www.opinionoutpost.com .
