O*Net Online<\/a>\u00a0is \u201cthe nation\u2019s primary source of occupational information.\u201d We\u2019re going to use it to help the leader of our operations department hire a new employee!<\/p>\nA national retailer is growing to the point where they have decided it would be wise to have some regional meetings a few times a year with their store managers, and perhaps even a national meeting that all store managers would attend. With 500 stores and counting, this would mean a lot of people in attendance. They\u2019d need to look at hotels or convention centers to provide space. They would raise funds from the company\u2019s vendors to pay for the event.<\/p>\n
