Hewlett Packard opens in Conway, still hiring

The 150,000 square foot facility in The Meadows Technology Park opens Monday. The keys to the building were turned over to HP officials just before the weekend. Workers have been in temporary space in Little Rock for almost a year.

HP announced in June 2008 they would move to Conway, needing 1,200 workers. That was one of the most significant economic development announcements ever in the state of Arkansas.  

HP still needs about 800 workers. Starting salaries are in the mid-$40,000's and range all the way up to the six figures.
