Apple may be hiring additional staff for the launch of the iPhone 5 in mid-August, according to a CNET report.

The site was tipped off to a job posting for iPhone sales specialists on the employment website Reed.

The post, which was sent to us by a tipster, asks for "full-time iPhone Sales Staff for an exciting project to work 5 days a week (Tuesday-Saturday) for the period 16th August - 29th October within key retail stores". The posting appears several times on Reed, with each post covering a different area of the UK.

The posting outlines job responsibilities that include: completing daily reports, providing a "first-class customer service experience", and to "capture the hearts and minds of potential customers".

A mandatory four-day training event will be held in London for those who are hired and the position pays £75 per day.

These hirings suggest that Apple is gearing up for a big product launch. The most likely candidate being, of course, the iPhone 5. Perhaps Apple plans to launch the device a bit earlier than most expect!
