While the weather may not be behaving like it, the calendar leaves
no doubt - it's Spring! Spring is a hopeful season as it brings
both transformation and change. And this is true for nature and
business alike. Look no further than our redesigned
website to prove that point - and check out
our blog post on
the matter which details all the changes we've made.
As we enter the second quarter, however, there will also be changes
made to work forces across the nation as a new generation of
workers is about to enter the fold. So with this edition of the IT
Industry Rundown we place a focus on what tech talent - new and old
- looks for, while also placing emphasis on how you as an employer
can identify top talent.
I hope you find these insights helpful as you continue to grow and
transform your teams. Please connect with us on
LinkedIn,
Facebook and
Twitter for even
more industry information.
