Allison S. Weiss has launched CRE Recruiting Inc., a talent recruitment firm specializing in the commercial real estate market. CRE Recruiting partners with businesses across the industry, from brokerage to development and mortgage banking, to strategically place talent that will fuel business growth. Finding and retaining talent has become the biggest challenge for companies large and small today, and Weiss saw an opportunity to make a significant impact on the market.

"A common theme in my daily conversations with industry colleagues was that their biggest challenge in scaling their businesses was identifying, attracting, and recruiting the right talent," Weiss, principal and founder of the firm, tells GlobeSt.com. "By starting my own firm, I knew I could help more people and companies grow while also leveraging the strong relationships I've built, and the industry and market knowledge I've gained over the course of my career.  My experience working inside large firms and collaborating with executives and market leaders to grow companies is rare—most recruiters working in this industry learned it from the outside and haven't lived it every day the way that I have."
