For example, while e-marketplaces like Amazon are growing rapidly at 27% each year, and e-marketplaces are responsible for 70% of consumer-goods sales between 2013-2018, less than 5% of CPG sales are conducted online.

When recruiting early-career talent, many employers tend to overlook community colleges as great sources for early career candidates.
