From a recent front page story in The New York Times: "The fall in unemployment to 4.4 percent and the recent surge in wages... raise the prospect that the job market could be on the brink of another strong run, much like the one that lifted incomes in the late 1990s." In our special Career Transitions interview with Dave, he confirms the prospect of a strong employment market, along with raising salaries for managers and executives well into the foreseeable future. Our interview ranges from the war for talent, to onboarding, branding, the shifting job market; and C-level executives new focus on the role of HR and talent retention.
Winter, Wyman places candidates in the $50-150K range, providing permanent, contract and contract-to-perm staffing services.
