Telecommunications giant Spectrum Inc. is investing nearly $2 million in a Northern Kentucky facility ahead of a push to hire on 300 more workers.

Spectrum, born from the acquisition of Time Warner Cable by Charter Communications (Nasdaq: CHTR), is investing $1.7 million in upgrades to its Florence call center at 7906 Dixie Highway, which it plans to expand to 400 employees from its current 100 as the company shifts all of its residential telemarketing to the facility.

"We know there's a good talent pool in Northern Kentucky and the Greater Cincinnati area," Spectrum spokesman Mike Hogan told me.

Spectrum is holding hiring events throughout October and November to fill the positions:

Oct. 12, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Oct. 16, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Oct. 30, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Nov. 13, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

At this point, no one yet knows who will be taking the warehouse over. Locals are saying Amazon, but it's still anybody's guess.

Company plans to build large warehouse at the site of Liverpool Country Club, may create 1,000 jobs
