Do thy do much work in the talent management space. My impression is they primarily do compensation work (like 80+ percent is comp)

We definitely do work in the talent management space. Compensation is a huge chunk of our business however if you align yourself with the partners that sell talent strategy work you can easily focus on that here rather than compensation

I am looking into the CCP (Certified Compensation Professional). It seems to be quite an expensive exam.

If anyone else is studying, let me know and maybe we can share study materials!

For those who have taken it, are there any cheaper or alternative study materials to any official guides you would recommend? I went this route with the PHR and SHRM-SCP and passed each on the both try, so I wanted to see if that method may be viable here. Any recommended order to take courses in?
