As noted in the Acsys, Inc. Compensation, Benefits and Workplace Trends Guide, managers underlined that the tight
supply of qualified individuals makes finding and retaining talented employees an ongoing challenge, with almost
60% stating that hiring will be at least slightly more difficult than last year. But, before an organization works on
retaining employees, it first has to find the people who have the necessary skills and are a good fit with the company
culture and others on the team. Many employers are working hard to attract the kind of talent that will not only meet
their needs today, but will also take on future leadership roles. Respondents stated, that they are now promoting
company culture, in addition to competitve benefits, in order to attract and retain talent (see below), which is also the
main reason, they themselves, choose to stay with their company.

Recruiting, retaining and engaging top talent is still a top priority for accounting and finance departments. The 2007
Acsys, Inc. Guide confirms that qualified candidates are in limited supply and progressive companies must continue
to be innovative in recruiting, motivating and retaining top talent.
