According to the American Staffing Association, the quantity of employees in temporary and contracted positions is up 15.1 percent from last year. Comparatively, the employment rate difference from October 2012 to the same month this year was up 4.9 percent.
In other good news, “staffing employment typically peaks between mid-November and mid-December,” according to the ASA. Staffing employment sees declining numbers until mid-January, which is when numbers start to swing upward again for new hires.
Great Year for Raleigh Part-Time and Contract Staffing Agencies
This is great time if you are looking for a job this time of the year. Back in the day people would say that no serious hiring would be done during the holiday period, except for that done by retail but now more and more companies are using the holidays as the period to get their companies in position for the following year.
By starting out hiring only temporary or contract positions, many Raleigh placement agencies can use this time to get contract hires up to speed on what’s going on within a company and to test them to see if they have what it takes to be a full-time or part-time employee.
