Consider two companies, each with comparable, average employee turnover rates for their industries. An executive team discussion at Company A goes something like this, “We’re not going to invest too much into talent development. We’ll just be setting ourselves up for our competitors to steal our best people after we invested our money in them. […]
The talent market has loosened, yet many employers are still finding it hard to find the right skill sets for open positions. This is particularly evident in more specialized Analyst, Technical, and IT roles. Education institutions are working hard to create more market-relevant programs and certifications but not quickly enough to keep up with employer […]
Talk to any CEO and one of their top three issues is finding talent.

Well, it’s about that time again, folks! We are rounding the corner and making our way into the second half of the year (crazy how six months can fly by!), which means NOW is a crucial time to assess your progress towards your 2023 goals for govcon recruiting. Now that we have half a year solidly under our belts, it’s important to take a minute to step back, review our targets, track our headway toward our objectives, and realign our processes to make sure we are on point to hit that “holy grail” we are shooting for by the end of the year.

While May flowers can bloom and thrive with only a little soil, rain, and sunlight we know that there is A LOT more that goes into expanding your business. We want to take a minute to recognize that one of the major contributing factors in elevating your company to the next level is your PEOPLE, and how recruitment for government contractors is all about harnessing that power.
We know that DEIAB is important for creating an inclusive and successful workplace environment. It’s not simply a trend or lingo in the industry; it’s a movement. It’s about creating a more equitable environment where everyone has equal opportunities, regardless of their background.
