Bloomberg to increase hiring

Global news, information service firm to add more local talent, says top official

Global financial information service provider Bloomberg LP is planning to ramp up its hiring in China this year, as part of its efforts to further localize its operations in the country, a top official said on Wednesday.

The New York-based privately owned company will hire more news professionals in China, especially those who can write in the local language about what is going on in the markets, said Peter Grauer, the company chairman, in an interview with China Daily.
