Industry Trends: Optimism from our VP of Sales

Despite a ton of unfortunate layoffs and a slowdown in hiring, it’s possible that things might be looking up for companies across the US. According to our VP of Sales, Dean Anderson , many folks might have just over-hired last year. However, it has also created a new possibility for companies to grow. 

Here are 3 ways you can look to build your team by hiring:

1. Permanent Hire – To build out your team
2. Contractor – To start or finish a project
3. Contract-to-Hire – To test a fit and make a full-time hire

Looking to grow your team through any of these methods? You can contact Dean via email at danderson@edistaffing.com
