Staffing and growth
A 7 on the letterhead wants the roles of a 7 inside: finance, records, research, planning, HR. Software products, education, consulting, healthcare and logistics all rate 7 second, and technology and trading rate it strong, because product companies, research, analysis and trades that cross borders reward Ketu's patience.
