The Company has increased it staff of consultants in the e-business area by 38% in Q1, and plans to increase it an additional 75% in Q2.

In particular, the Company is looking for business analysts, workflow specialists, Java and XML programmers, database designers, graphic artists, implementation specialists, project managers, and systems architects. ``Our business is our personnel, so we are hiring talented people who want all of the excitement of an entrepreneurial environment, but like the fact that we are already a public Company, where they don't have to wait for that ever-elusive IPO,' said Jim Myers, COO.
