ACCUR in the News: NPR’s Marketplace
ACCUR Recruiting Services’ Edouard Thoumyre spoke to the national financial radio program Marketplace yesterday:
The past couple of years have been pretty busy for Edouard Thoumyre. He’s managing partner at Accur Recruiting Services, which works in retail, hospitality and travel.
“Demand for new talent was very, very high. And candidates were very heavily solicited from every direction. So it was definitely an employee-driven market,” he said.
In the last six months, he’s noticed a change.
“There are fewer employers looking to hire, and candidates are not as open to make moves. They are definitely … cautious,” he said. Cautious, perhaps, because of the economy. Typically, the quits rate helps economists gauge how confident people feel about retiring, finding a new job or quitting and living on a cushion of savings.
