A recent
Insurance Business poll asked where companies are looking when they are hiring – and the results show that the majority are looking to their competitors for the best talent.
A two-to-one ratio of those who took the poll said that they looked to the competition and to resumes already on their desk.
Half of those said that they were looking to colleges and universities for new hires, along with meeting by chance at conferences or social gatherings.
Our
new poll takes a look at the summer work ethic, as we ask readers if the ‘Bliss Point’ has been reached in their office.
According to one expert, Mika Skuterud, the ‘Bliss Point’ is when a perfect summer day of 27.2 °C, including humidex, has clear skies and a light wind of 14.7kmh.
"People wake up, they see there’s this great weather and they have a pent-up demand to do some recreational activities,” says Skuterud.
