Dear Interim HR Professional,
Welcome to the premier issue of Continuiti’s Newsletter. In this issue, we will share our critique of the temporary staffing industry. These blunt, focused insights have helped Continuiti to buck the status quo and, in turn, have shaped our "super-niche" business philosophy. Click on “Crisis of Credibility…,” below, for more.
The temporary professional market is VERY hot right now. The skilled talent shortage has not just arrived at your doorstep - it's sitting on your living room couch! One unfortunate side effect we see: an increasing number of clients moving halfway through the interview process, only to learn their "lead" candidate just accepted another offer. Below, you’ll find two articles with frank advice for clients on how to avoid similar frustrations.
We hope this newsletter serves as a platform to exchange information and discuss issues. Please bookmark our website; we are currently developing a number of exciting tools to be launched in coming months, like interactive forums for clients and HR interim professionals, which will allow for real-time analysis and upstream trend identification. Until those tools are in place, we invite you to share your thoughts, suggestions and experiences via email at interimHR@continuiti.com
