Something I see consistently is the focus on making this transition immediate from a recession to a recovery. That simply is not going to happen. Increased jobs are coming and the release of capital from banks and other financial institutions is starting to increase. But without a solid economic foundational plan, all of these hopes could be well dashed. Increased jobs are part of the process that come from solid lending, increased spending on R&D, and some tolerance of risk in the market place. In this past recession, all have been paralyzed and continue to not allow the increase in jobs to come as quickly as everyone wants to see. All good and solid news.

I am a Partner for 20 person recruiting firm and my team leads the Online Marketing practice. We happen to be feeling the buzz, seeing significant activity and getting prepared for an uptick. Now in talking with some of the most prominent online business/agency owners their outlook is still pretty conservative. Most see improvements however they are not yet ready to pull the trigger on hiring. Temporary staffing is trending upwards which is always an indicator that permanent hiring is coming. Most executives are telling us that they are not 100% sure of what is going to happen however money is trickling in and are hopeful that hiring will ensue significantly in Q1 of 2010. More good news is that US productivity is up 6.6% for Q2, highest it has been in six years. Things are looking up but we are still scraping bottom.
