Finding the Diamond can be Rough

Today’s employers face multiple challenges while developing sustainable, qualified talent. As baby boomers approach retirement age, labor shortages are expected, particularly within fields requiring science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) skill sets. Employers who explore innovative ways to identify and connect with prospective employees will be poised to win this inevitable “war for talent.”

TalentConnect allows employers to connect with students earlier and from a wider distribution of high schools and colleges, resulting in an expanded base from which to draw.
