Harnessing the power of the unemployed

It's disturbing to read articles about companies refusing to consider unemployed applicants for jobs. Many - perhaps most of those who became unemployed since 2008 - are in that situation through no fault of their own. Part of Portfolio's mission is to "harness the power of the unemployed" by using these outstanding experts who are now available to work for our clients. For businesses that aren't recognizing what a tremendous talent pool is out there, I'm sorry for you, but better for us.
