The Apple news blog says it has obtained internal hiring documents from Apple that say it's seeking candidates with "a fashion or luxury background" for its Apple Stores.
The report didn't elaborate on what the position(s) would entail or any other related details.
If legitimate, the report suggests Apple is already thinking about how its new smartwatch will be displayed and sold in stores.
Apple has previously said the watch will launch in 2015, but hasn't mentioned a specific date.
Apple's retail chief Angela Ahrendts reportedly told employees that the Apple Watch will launch in the spring next year, according to $4, who has a solid track record when it comes to reporting unannounced Apple news. The company, however, has yet to confirm this.
Apple's smartwatch will start at $350 and will be available in different sizes and styles ranging from stainless steel to rose gold. TechCrunch suggests high-end models like the rose gold variant $4, though others have speculated the wrist wearable could cost as much as $4 or even $4.
