2017 WILL BE ANOTHER RECORD YEAR FOR THE STAFFING AND RECRUITMENT INDUSTRY

February 28, 2017

The staffing and recruitment industry is going from strength to strength. With a projected annual growth of 4%, and predicted revenue of $145 billion in 2017, it’s clear that more and more businesses are outsourcing their hiring and recruitment needs. That’s no surprise – The hiring economy is changing. Embedded HR departments have to adapt fast to keep up, or outsource their hiring needs to experts. Although recruitment for permanent positions remains strong, it’s in the temporary, contract, and freelance roles that we’re seeing the biggest changes. With the move towards technology, rapid product development, and discrete, project-based roles, the need for highly-skilled contractors has never been higher.
