Oh, you expect US to train them?

An interesting look at the facts behind companies claims they can't find qualified workers. From the Wall Street Journal.

The long and short of it is this: Employers want employees who are fully trained to do the job they are being hired for, immediately, with years of experience already behind them. They don't want to spend any time or money training new hires even though there is an ample amount of trainable people for the jobs.

Interesting read.
