The survey results held important information for job candidates and employers alike. With demand for litigation support and eDiscovery services expected to climb even more as the nation rebounds from the recession, employers will now be faced with the new challenge of not only finding and hiring key professionals – but also training and retaining them. In fact, David Cowen argues that “most top talent is looking to land at an organization that is committed to investing in professional development. This means training, mentorship, and a clear career path.”
 Forward-thinking companies need to start considering how they are going to attract and retain these professionals when the competition increases

Cowen will be hosting a series of free discussions throughout the United States in June, July and August to help senior managers at law firms and corporations explore modernized job descriptions and how to train and retain top talent in an up market.
