BRIEF: Tunstall Americas job-recruitment drive draws crowd Friday

Mar 15, 2013 (The Providence Journal - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Dozens of Rhode Islanders turned out Friday morning for a recruitment drive held by Tunstall Americas.

As the company prepares to open a call center in April, people with experience working in telemarketing and as certified nursing assistants donned dress clothes, brought their resumes and listened to a company executive talk about the available jobs. Tunstall interviewed people on the spot and said they'd alert those they want to hire quickly.

The company, which expects to bring 250 jobs to Rhode Island over the next year, needs people to answer calls placed by those who activate their health-monitoring devices when they face medical troubles, Tunstall's vice president of human resources, Seth Muraskin, told job seekers. It will have more jobs available for other call-center operations, but Friday's drive was an effort to find such emergency-response employees.

Kathrin Fowler, 36, of Providence landed one of the Friday interviews and said it went well.

"She's going to call Monday," Fowler reported. "I like the approach...They're moving fast." ___ (c)2013 The Providence Journal (Providence, R.I.) Visit The Providence Journal (Providence, R.I.) at www.projo.com Distributed by MCT Information Services
