Prostrate economy, but still recruiting

While many recruiting firms are struggling and some are going out of business, Tampa-based Naviga Business Services is growing and getting new business every week.

Part of the reason is that Naviga recruits sales executives and sales people, staff members who bring in revenues for companies.

Kathleen Steffey, chief executive officer and founder of Naviga, has grown the firm to 12 employees since its beginning in 2002 and now serves clients across the country. Its offices are on Bayshore Boulevard in South Tampa.
