Since the down-turn of the economy many organizations have discontinued their hiring process, forgoing bringing in new talent. Because of economic fears, employers proceeded to ‘batten down the hatches’ and weather the storm and not make any talent investments. Many companies had to make do with what they had in hopes they would have enough talent to keep the company operational.

The economy has since bottomed out and begun a process of recovery. However, many companies are still afraid to invest in new talent on the possibility that the economy could take another nose dive. But what if the economy doesn’t falter, but continues to rise? And the recent bad economy has brought a lot of great talent to the surface, ready for the picking. Maybe it is time for organizations to make that investment and make their company more profitable than before.

Are you ready to get your company back on its growing path, or do you want to wait for your competitors to make the investment, take all the good talent, and lead in your industry? Are you like the automobile driver sitting at the four way stop looking at the other drivers waiting for them to make their move? Do you want your competitors to take all your customers? There is an ocean of great talent to be plucked, both by you and your competitors. So who is going to make the first move and bring in the best talent?
