Once upon a time, finding and hiring great people who would stay with the firm long-term wasn’t all that difficult. Talented people would walk in and ask for a job, and it was a relatively simple matter to keep them for the duration of their careers. Times have changed.

A/E firm leaders cite recruitment and retention as the number one challenge they are facing, and there doesn’t appear to be any relief in sight. A dearth of engineering and science graduates and the lure of big money in the IT sector are just two reasons the A/E labor market is so tight. But it’s not a hopeless situation; smart firms are still attracting and retaining the best and brightest. You can, too.

There’s a new talent war out there today, and smart firms know how to win it. They’ve figured out what compels people to take positions with their firms and they’ve set aside the necessary resources to not only attract the best, but keep them long-term as well.

A/E Recruitment & Retention Cookbook will show you how these firms have gained a competitive advantage in attracting and retaining the right people. You’ll learn where to find the best people, how to screen and interview them, how to craft an offer letter that gets accepted, and how to keep the best people you’ve fought hard to win. You’ll also get a behind-the-scenes look at what some firms are doing to motivate and reward their best performers in a series of A/E firm case studies that feature firms of all types and sizes at work in the industry today. Find out what works in other firms just like yours and model your recruitment and retention program off ones that have proven successful.

Finding and keeping the best people who will make a real contribution to your firm isn’t just a fairy tale. A/E Recruitment & Retention Cookbook will show you how to make the fantasy of the ideal staff a reality!
