Are there actually more openings, or is this statement simply intended to encourage more applications?
I'm certain there are more openings, but it is all probably down to what jwscud mentioned - the internal shuffle.
Given recent comms (which I can't repost here) it sounds as if the company is still really struggling to come to up with any firm up idea as to DEP/FPP numbers needed and where they will go over the next year, other than it will be into three figures.
