Recruitment trends reportA good economy is good for employers, but it has a downside—the decreased supply of skilled and talented labor. The lower the unemployment rate, the harder it is for businesses to attract talent. To compete for workers employers need flexible tools that automate the recruitment process.  To get ahead HR and Recruiters need to post jobs fast, across multiple job boards and provide an online application experience to applicants.

- 500,000 managers embark on new roles annually.

- 1/2 of all outside senior hires are no longer in that position after 18 months.
