Are you suffering with talent attraction because of your location? I have been hearing from friends in local businesses that attracting people to Michigan is a challenge – potential employees concerned about job security, jobs for spouses and children, housing values and resale, among other general issues with relocation.
For those who are willing to move, some of the requests – guarantees/contracts for employment, money for selling homes and loans to buy locally while old homes sit -have become cost prohibitive for some employers. I realize the employment is high but for some of the specialty occupations, the right person can make all the difference. And what if they won’t come?
Would you move to Michigan? Would you move anywhere right now? Or are you sitting put waiting this out?
