Welcome to 2014

Happy New Year and Welcome to 2014!  As I look back on my personal and professional life of 2013, I'm excited by the accomplishments and all the people I've had the opportunity to meet.  

As I enter 2014, I look forward to much more of the same. I also look forward to the opportunity of sharing more as well as learning more from those I'm connected with, as well as from those I look forward to connecting with.

One thing I'd like to share today is for your investment side.  Zack's Investment Research just upgraded Amazon to a Strong Buy.  Check out the article: http://www.zacks.com/stock/news/118568/amazon-a-strong-buy

I'll end this by sharing with you something I really like to say as it is what I will enter into 2014 with: Embrace the adventure that is life.  Read between the lines, don’t read between the lines, analyze the crap out of what you think it means, whatever.  

Our life is one big adventure for us to explore personally and professionally....embrace it.

 Look forward to connecting with you in 2014!

Hiring Vets. Who does it right? Amazon does.

Happy New Year and Welcome to 2012! I wanted to share this article as it was posted during the holidays and I'm sure lots of us were checked out spending time with our families, visiting old friends and just disconnecting.

This is great article and highlights Veteran recruiting. I also believe it comes at a good time to serve as a reminder to employers everywhere that there could be some great people entering the market.

Now just because we are bringing out troops home doesn't mean everyone is going to be on the hunt. But there will be some that have met their commit and will be ready to serve in a different way.

Read over the article, seeing who is doing right, and happy recruiting as you continue to build your company in 2012.
