It will take four years to finish the project which is expected to create at least 100 jobs with a minimum average salary of 68,700 dollars annually, according to Yahoo.

Yahoo announced 10 percent or 15,000 layoffs earlier this week in a bid to grapple with the economic downturn.

Earlier this year, Yahoo applied for the biggest slate of state tax breaks available in Nebraska to help set up some operations in the state, which included a customer service center in Omaha.
