Changes
“Some of the changes we’ll be forced into; but it is a real opportunity to develop a more diverse work force.”
College Graduates
“Only 2% of [American] college graduates are looking for jobs in engineering and science.”
Gaps
“Identify when and where gaps are going to occur.”
New Recruits
“This is not just looking for young professionals already in the industry, it’s about attracting new recruits.”
Work force gap
“I feel the seed industry recognizes they have a work force gap.”
