There has been endless talk about the future of recruitment, and I have suggested that there are brilliant opportunities for recruitment companies, if they make the right changes.

Top talent doesn’t grow on trees (but wouldn’t that be nice?). Finding suitable job candidates can be challenging. In fact, ManpowerGroup’s ninth annual Talent Shortage Survey revealed that nearly 40 percent of employers globally have difficulty filling jobs.
