Taleo and Vurv finally together...
Taleo (TLEO) to buy Vurv. It certainly isn't a case of love at first site. Taleo and Vurv have battled each other for years, and have swapped employees several times. Together they have the ability to really dominate the enterprise talent acquisition sector. Strong Q1 post as well for TLEO. Pundits will analyze this to death, but the net/net is this:
Taleo is an industry giant and they will continue to cement this position as it relates to the "enterprise" customers
This was most efficient way to get VURV customers. Beats the hell out of battling it out with VURV in the sales cycle.
They will migrate VURV customers to the Taleo platform.
The battle for SMB's will be the one to watch.

Labor Trends on This Labor Day 2006
Picnic..Food..for thought...
"Labor trends point to the increasing importance of adaptability. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average worker currently holds 10 different jobs before hitting age 40. Job tenures now hover around four years. Forrester Research's Claire Schooley predicts these numbers will only get more extreme, anticipating that today's youngest workers will hold 12 to 15 jobs in their lifetimes."
