The work will include processing, underwriting, closing and with quality assurance and HR positions.
The non-supervisory positions will average $53,000 a year, and some experience is required.
“The initial wave of hiring with be for those jobs,” said Gail Ferrari Marold, spokeswoman for the company. “But we plan to grow this center, especially after the first year, and adding more clients and other services.”
She said one round of hiring has been completed and that the company has offers out. The second round will begin the week of July 24 when the company will hold a job fair.

Company CEO is an Indian from India. This is deja vu all over again (thanks Yogi) for the State of Florida. Yeah, tax breaks.
These companies end up relocating their long-standing employees from NYC and elsewhere to fill the new positions in Florida, leaving less than 10% of the new positions to be filled by new Florida workers.
And why wouldn't they? Why would they want to leave their most seasoned employees behind, in exchange for rookies from New York south who can't even read or write? We've seen this very same scenario happen dozens of times down here.
Sick of the scam.
My uncle owned a chain of banks in Florida circa 1960-80 and I don’t recall him hiring many New Yorkers unless they had already relocated to Florida.

Mortgage processing is pretty low level stuff. Wouldn’t surprise me if many if these jobs are H-1B types. Southside Jax has an exploding foreign national community. They are not coming for the beaches, guaranteed.
Hey naive contrarian, 1960-1980 is ancient history as regards the economics and politics of this state. Since the early 90’s dozens of companies have pulled a reverse bait/switch on Florida’s bureaucracy, reeling in tax breaks, then stating they had “no idea” how many of their employees were willing to follow “their jobs” down here, so sorry, nothing they could do. Result? Maybe 25 jobs left to fill with Florida residents. And a bonanza for the real estate agents.
Where the hell did you get that from? Consumer mortgage files are some of the most complex packages of documents you could find, subject to state and federal regulations, time constraints, document review, insurance and due diligence hurdles, appraisal nightmares, and disclosure requirements that would make a stock broker look like a piker.
