ZET has announced new job postings for 36 workers, from drivers to employees in administration and infrastructure maintenance.

In addition, it is still collecting applications for bus drivers and a range of skilled trades. According to ZET's official website, the new calls were published on 22 and 23 October, and for most of them applications are open until 2 November.
