It is one of the most important issues that marketers face, especially in B2B companies when the sales force is the primary contact with the customer. Since day one, CareerBuilder.com has acknowledged the importance of creating and nurturing a strong sales-marketing partnership, which ultimately played a key role in CareerBuilder becoming the largest online employment site in less than 5 years.
