I arrived in San Francisco last night and this morning I did my early bird registration for the SOA World Conference & Expo, which is taking place at the Hyatt Hotel, on Monday and Tuesday this week.

I found a mini "Two Roads" dartboard in my delegate goodie bag, a cool little toy, which will be sitting on my work station wall.

I looked at their website and see the following news release, dated November 2007:

"San Francisco, California, SOA World (November 12, 2007) - Two Roads Professional Resources announces A Better Road to the Right Candidate: an innovative response to the challenges facing organizations in locating top IT talent for their project needs. The Two Roads approach reacts to critical staffing needs, anticipates needs based on required skills, and proactively markets resumes to Information Technology stakeholders on behalf of top candidates.

“Two Roads focuses on partnering with Information Technology to control and streamline the process of securing candidates,” explains Two Roads’ Ron Terry. “We are able to accomplish this by working with the hiring managers to assess skills and company culture, which helps us to secure active and passive candidates.
