15000 world wide;

About 30 percent of the 15,000 new positions, or 4,500 jobs, will be net new hires in the United States, he said.

IBM also would raise to 50 percent from 40 percent the number of its new staff directly from college. The rest will have previous professional experience. In 2005, IBM plans to increase the percent of new hires from a university to 60 percent, he said.

What are the chances that some of the 4500 jobs are going to be jobs that are pulled in from Nokia?
