Spot Opportunities
Spot Ops in your targeted cities- A Spot Opportunity is any event that indicates movement within a company. For example, a company that has just gone public will have a large cash infusion- part of this cash will have to go towards hiring personnel. Another example is a company that has just announced record profits and will probably be in the hiring mode. 
Spot Ops are good for 6-8 months after the original announcement. For example, if a company has just gone public or announced record profits, after the announcement, the company is still seeking qualified employees for many months.  Many jobs are created through this approach which typically occurs months before recruiting and other hiring methods.
This research allows you  to approach companies with a need, many months before the position is advertised and before any recruiting agency activity.  This approach allows positions to be built around your skills, ensuring a best fit.  Spot Opportunities will give you a true competitive advantage.
Explanations are provided to assist you in maximizing the data provided.

Unlike an employment agency, which finds jobs for candidates seeking work, a recruiting firm works on a company's behalf to find the right person for the specific position they need to fill. And unlike a temporary agency, which selects and places employees from its own payroll, the company maintains control of the hiring process. The recruiting firm conducts the search, screens candidates, and, in some cases, helps with the negotiations, but the company still interviews, selects, and hires the candidate.
