AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 7, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Talent Alliance, Inc. (Pink Sheets:TLAN), announced today that the Company has added WalMart and Kawasaki to its client list. Along with these household names the company had made significant inroads into the Oil and Gas and Alternative Energy sectors with the addition of several new clients.
WalMart chose to use Talent Alliance's direct placement military transition services in order to augment their leadership development program. By providing the highly sought after transitioning Junior Military Officers (JMOs) in a direct recruiting model, Talent Alliance was able to help WalMart increase their recruiting and talent acquisition efficiencies and decrease their time away from the office on costly recruiting trips.
Talent Alliance has also recently become the primary talent acquisition resource for Kawasaki's Rail Division in their recruitment of skilled technicians and engineering managers throughout the Northeast.
The company has also experienced growth in the rapidly expanding Oil and Gas and Alternative Energy industries with the recent addition of clients such as: Petron, TD Williamson, USEC, National Oilwell Varco, Berry Petroleum, GMZ Resources, Cupertino Electric, and Gate Petroleum. "Our successful penetration into these expanding markets is testament to our ability to adjust to talent acquisition needs across several markets. Unlike many recruitment firms, we focus not on specific industries; but rather, on the most sought after candidate pools that shape the industry," said Jeff Williams, VP of Recruiting.
