The Senior Manager job sounds really tough. It is about leading Store Managers and doing things like hiring people training them and making sure the team is doing a great job.

Echoing Tim Cook’s Mumbai Promise

The news about Hyderabad is really exciting. This comes after Cook talked about the first quarter earnings. Said that the Mumbai Store number 2 is coming soon. There are rumors that it will be at the Oberoi Sky City Mall in Borivali. Do you remember when the first Mumbai store opened in August 2023? It was at the Jio World Drive, in Bandra Kurla Complex. It was amazing. Cook was there himself to cut the ribbon. There were so many people waiting in line to get in. The Mumbai Store was really popular. Now everyone is waiting for the Mumbai Store number 2 to open.

India is a great place for Apple. The company is selling a lot of iPhones there. They are making more of them in India too. When Apple opens stores people can try out the products and see how they work. They can also get their iPhones fixed at these stores. This is a deal because it makes people like Apple more and want to buy their products again. India is a place where people really care about how much things cost. This is very important, for Apple. Apple is trying to make people think that their products are special and worth the money and the stores help them do that.

From two stores in 2023 to six by mid-2026? Apple’s betting big on physical retail here. Hyderabad makes sense—tech talent hub, growing middle class. Can’t wait for the unboxing… er, grand opening!
