Dear !

Our president, Nicole McMackin has been an active contributing opinion writer for several different media outlets. In her most recent contribution with American Express Open, Nicole discusses how true innovation always has a place in the market. "Many of the companies experiencing lower stock valuation have become stagnant to the users and/or investors, but people will always invest in new and creative devices and concepts. Small and large firms alike are busy working on the 'next greatest thing' that will change the way we work, communicate and live. Those companies that demonstrate a true value to society will receive proper financial backing".

"Small firms typically need to procure a hired gun to get them through funding and angel investing. If these firms lack the knowledge to gather funding, they normally do not succeed, regardless of the ingenuity of the business idea or product. Smaller firms need to be cognizant of their bottom line while enhancing development of their products".

We are proud of Nicole's insightful contributions and her eagerness to continue to grow our business by researching the industry and sharing her knowledge with others.

Warmly,

After years of scant real gains despite steadily falling unemployment and healthy hiring, wages picked up significantly last month, a sign the job market could be tightening enough to force companies to pay more to attract and retain employees.

The half a percentage point increase in average hourly earnings in January was the brightest spot in a generally positive Labor Department report on Friday, which showed job creation slowing from the white-hot pace of late 2015 even as the unemployment rate fell to an eight-year low of 4.9 percent.

The last six months were the best extended period for employee paychecks since the recovery began six-and-a-half years ago.

Dice Report: Most Sought-After Tech Positions

Although hiring is expected to increase in the first half of 2016, many critical technology positions will remain in high demand, according to the January Dice Report. In particular, appetite for tech

professionals with security expertise continues to rise; it now ranks third on the below list of Most Challenging Talent to Hire, which is based on employer responses to the Dice Hiring Survey: Topping the list is software developers, a critical role in any company developing technology systems.

Because they are in high demand, software developers may also be harder for employers to retain. The best software professionals want to lead creative and innovative projects, and hiring managers (as well as everyday managers) will need to ensure that such opportunities are available.
