The strong surge in the U.S. economy during the final months of 2014 continues to fuel the growth in RETS’ business as 2015 begins. Even the traditionally slower December-January time frame remained active, and RETS finished the year with a record-breaking total of more than 450 searches.

Top candidates are receiving multiple offers, so companies must define and refine their candidate selection process and be prepared to move quickly.
