If you haven't done so, I would recommend running out and buying this month's Economist magazine - as it relates to the Search for Talent. The article covers every aspect of recruiting, retention, and the current and past states of the world workforce. Of course I was excited to read about passive candidate recruiting, as that's what our product does. But by far this has to be one of the best talent articles ever written.
I have summarized some key points from the article, but I encourage you to read and respond to the article, there are some very powerful statistics in it.
