Information becomes critical during creation of new functional divisions when foreign market of work is not ready to offer suitable candidates yet. So, for example, the department of commercialization of innovations in PepsiCo was created: at that time in Russia there were practically no specialists in this area. And, having addressed the Success Factors system, having carried out search in key skills and competences, all positions to PepsiCo Russia in the field of commercialization of innovations were closed at the expense of own staff of PepsiCo.
