"It´s hard to build a great company with the wrong people."
Jay Goltz, The New York Times
On-line recruiting lets firms target many qualified candidates for any job, screen them in seconds, and contact the best ones immediately. It costs one-twentieth of want-ad hiring, and slices 15 days off the usual 43-day hiring cycle.
Peter Cappelli, Harvard Business Review
Before, it hardly mattered if you were in Detroit and someone better was in Dakar; you were here and they were there, and that was the end of it. But Joy’s point was that this was changing.

Chris Anderson, Wired
