Apple looking to hire 10 new engineers for their failing Maps app

By: (more) | Apps News | Posted: Feb 7, 2013 12:34 pm

We all know how Apple's Maps app is pretty much a failure right now, when compared to Google's superior navigation app, but it looks like Apple is at least trying to improve the app by hiring new engineers.

AppleInsider are reporting that they noticed some job postings where the Cupertino-based company are looking for some engineers to work with their Maps team. Out of the ten jobs, nine of the engineers "will handle various programming duties, while one will be assigned to tackle navigation." In the job posting, Apple say that their Maps application is the "best mapping program on any mobile platform" - really, Apple?
