To those about to communicate...

...we salute you. I haven't written in a long time; too long. It turns out timing is everything here. If I don't write just when the mood strikes and don't keep things short enough, I get distracted, or have to go to one of many meetings, or I just get too tired. I can't imagine I'm unique in this way.

In case you don't already know, we have selected Hobsons EMT as our partner for student recruiting. They are offering us a hosted solution, so they will handle all of the software and hardware. It was a good process and the competition was strong. In the end the team felt Hobsons would help us move forward in the directions we want to go.

The implementation is being led by Nikolas Hodge, a longtime recruiter and generally high-energy young woman whose enthusiasm is contagious. She and her team have telephone calls every week with Hobsons to discuss UA's requirements, and they expect we will be up and running this very May!
