was recently interviewed by one of the editors of a technical magazine based in California (narrows It down, huh?) to discuss the logistical details of our Valiant Bridge program. Throughout the interview, I was continually asked how we were dealing with the downturn in hiring and if we had a plan to sustain. The first few times, I avoided giving a direct answer out of a fear of appearing ignorant to this industry crisis. After the third time I was asked, I turned right into this “”fastball” and said…”What downturn are you referring to?”. She told me that she has mutilple conversations with technical staffing executives each week across the US, and almost all were discussing how their business was slowing down this year. Sheeshhh…
Our company started in November, 2007. And while we weren’t starting from scratch from a knowledge standpoint, (I had a couple years experience, myself.) we didn’t have one requisition to start working on for a while. Here’s a quick report from our ATS that shows the volume of reqs that we have received thus far:
We currently have sales offices in Dallas, Sacramento and Chicago. And while all of our offices have had great activity, Dallas continues to grow dramatically.
