...Kelly Services, Inc. 999 West Big Beaver Road Troy, MI 48084 December 2, 2012 Mr. Laszlo Bock, Senior Vice President People Operations Google, Inc. 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043 Dear Mr. Bock: You’re invited to join 90% of Fortune 500 companies that have streamlined human resource management while maintaining a high performing workforce. We at Kelly Services are making this offer because we know it’s hard for growing companies to process job applicants and continue recruiting top talent while controlling expenses. Adapting the hiring process to meet the needs of a large company requires a special approach. Recruiting efforts must be coordinated to avoid wasted endeavors. Outsourcing projects is a consideration to limit rising recruiting cost. To add complexity, offering a broad spectrum of products and services on a global scale requires workers with various skill sets in multiple countries around the world. It is necessary to fill specific positions, while juggling the need to maintain equal opportunities for individuals with diverse backgrounds. Geographic and cultural barriers can make it hard to source qualified workers. Kelly Services understands the issues facing Google and knows the difficulties involved in managing human resources in a large organization without an experienced partner. That is why we are offering our proven expertise, which has won multiple awards from successful companies such as Chrysler, Ford, Intel,...

...Kelly Services To find out if Kelly Services is under performing or over performing, it is a good idea to take a look at the company's financial statements and evaluate its condition base on this. They should compare the company’s financial ratios relative to their competitors. Some of the main items used in valuing a company’s performances are: sales, earnings per share, dividends, current assets, current liabilities, and long-term debt. By using these items they can determine the company’s financial ratios to value the company’s health relative to their competitors. A company can benefit from tax advantages by incorporating debt into its capital structure. The reason for this is that interest on debt is tax deductible on a company’s income statement. When a company issues debt in the form of bonds the interest paid is taxed only once at the personal level. On the other hand, equity has no tax advantage to a corporation. The dividends paid to equity holders are taxed twice, once at the corporate level and once at the personal level. At the current time Kelly Services is only equity financed. However, the company could benefit from this tax advantage by incorporating debt into their capital structure. Even though debt has an advantage to the company’s financial statements, it does not increase overall value to the firm. As company alters their capital structure they are changing the risk of the firm, while at the same time they are changing the required rate of return...

...Kelly Services, Inc. Group 7 Has Kelly Services Inc. underperformed or outperformed its competitors? On what dimensions? Financial ratios are great indicators to find a firm’s performance and financial situation.

...The Dollar General Informal Analytical Report Professor XXX DeVry University June 1, 2014 999 West Big Beaver Road Troy, Michigan (USA) 48084 kfirst@kellyservices.com Dollar General is widely regarded as one of the chief discount vendors in the United States. Based in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, it has over 11,000 stores across 40 states, serving to customers with the idea of making shopping easier, and convenient, by carefully sorting out the goods, and selling them at spectacularly low prices, the store’s growth rate saw a decline Because the targeted audience of Dollar General looks for buying everyday household good at the lowest prices, they are suspended to growing more in periods of recessions. Such stores find themselves under pressure at times because they cannot increase the prices of their goods even when the costs of operations are on the rise. By analyzing the average earnings of household in the West of the country, as well as Upper-Midwest, there is room for growth courtesy of new stores. Opening of their stores in California could well be stressful for them, as the market is challenging, and there is little room for newcomers, unless they come up with impressive deals. On the other hand, their plan of having a merger with their rivals Family Dollar is on the cards, though it is hard to figure out the impact it would have on the two parties/the newly formed company. Also, Dollar General does not cater all departments...

...According to research I have gathered from several different sources Nova Biomedical USA would be an excellent candidate. We have the potential to meet all of their staffing needs, just as they have the ability to become a profitable contract for us. Nova Biomedical develops, manufactures and sells advanced technology blood testing analyzers based on electrochemical and optical measuring techniques. They employ over 1,000 people and have sales and service subsidiaries in 7 countries and distributors in over 90 other countries. Nova has manufacturing facilities in Waltham and Billerica, Massachusetts, as well as Taipei, Taiwan (Unknown, 2012) “Nova is one of the 25 largest in vitro diagnostic companies in the world and the largest privately owned in vitro diagnostic company in the United States." (Unknown, 2012) As the above quote from Nova's website states they are a large company and are involved in a global industry. This is one reason Nova is a good fit for Kelly Services. In the past decade Nova had been through some trying times and a major change. They have been through two significant intellectual property lawsuits involving patents and trade secrets (Salzman, 2013). Though they came out victorious, these court battles were expensive and led to the layoff of sixty employees, a total of eight percent of their total workforce in 2008.

...Kelly Services Inc This case is really focusing on the issue of a company that needs to consider taking on debt. Kelly Services Inc. is going through a period were they are going through some major expansion. With major expansion needs the urge to find investors. When you find investors you need to take on debt, the good thing about debt is you are able to generate profit without having to put a dollar down. So if the debt increases, yes he will be leveraged, but through the company leveraging it gives it the opportunity to generate more of a return in the long run. It says the pay out ratio is 28 percent. For the cases of Olsten and Volt, you can see that Olsten has no debt. Having no debt means the returns you are going to receive are going to be a lot lower For instance Olsten has 0 debt financing and as you can see there returns are the lowest of the three companies. On the other hand Kelly also has 0 debt but there forecasting for growth is a lot lower then Volt the reason being because they do not have the financing to take on investments that can grow their company in the future. On the other hand when you look into Volt’s statements they have the highest debt with still good net worth, but it has the highest level of growth for future advancement. So what this shows is a company that has the highest leverage won’t only have a good return on investment it will also show a favorable path for growth within the future. Another interesting thing to look at is the return...
