Nearly 40% of workers plan to change jobs in the next year, according to recent Spherion^® surveys. This will put substantial new talent on the market and create plenty of competition among job seekers. What can you do to ensure the best chance of success?

Using a staffing company like Spherion can provide a huge advantage. For starters, it costs you nothing—the prospective employers pay all fees. And it’s convenient, since you can perform most of the required application processes online. However, if online isn’t convenient for you, there are other effective alternatives.

One of the largest employers in the U.S., Spherion has relationships with leading companies and local businesses nationwide, across all industries—offering direct links to great opportunities. We are also one of the most experienced firms, putting talented people to work for more than 60 years.

Our recruiters know the employment opportunities in their communities inside and out, often before they are advertised. They can represent you to client companies and help keep your application in play. And if you aren’t certain about making a change, they’ll conduct the search discreetly. While most workers will make multiple job changes during their lives, these recruiters have negotiated thousands of career moves.

Whether you are interested in temping, in working as a contractor or on a project basis, or prefer an opportunity to convert from temp to perm, Spherion can help find what you’re looking for. And, while you’re working, you’ll be paid directly by Spherion, often in a convenient pay card to avoid the hassle of cashing checks. Similarly, employees who are interested in full-time or “permanent” positions can also leverage Spherion’s expertise, experience and extensive network to land that kind of job.
