Three recent events highlight the ‘now you see ‘em, now you don’t’ aspect of job announcements:
Almost certainly real: SCHOTT SOLAR will build a solar energy production facility in Mesa del Sol on the south edge of Albuquerque. Beyond construction jobs the company will employ 350 people at its first phase.
Probably real: ECLIPSE AVIATION, with a total work force of about 1,600, plans to hire an additional 700 people this year.
We’ll see: TESLA MOTORS is once again saying it will build an assembly plant for its electric sedan on Albuquerque’s West Side.
