This is an interview conducted by Career Builder at the Staffing World 2011 Expo. In this interview I was asked about how staffing services conduct business day to day, and what it is like working in this industry. As you can tell I was asked on the spot and was not given the questions before hand. Please let me know if you have any feedback on this interview or if there are any questions.

What is a staffing service? When there is a need for qualified personnel to fill a position immediately, a staffing service is a great resource for just about any type of company. Essentially, a staffing service is a service that matches the labor needs of its corporate clients with individuals who have the skill sets necessary to meet those needs.
There is a lot of misconception about what a staffing service entails, and many people’s opinions are not true. A staffing service is a great source of qualified employees who are ready to work when a client calls. Most staffing services offer three programs to fit a client’s needs: temporary employee, payroll only, and temporary employee to hire (temp to hire). The definitions of each are as follows:
Construction jobs remain flat, interest in industry still strong

Creation of new construction jobs in Idaho will remain flat in 2011, despite continued interest in construction-related higher education courses.
“Nothing we see suggests that construction is going to do anything in 2011,” Idaho Department of Labor spokesman Bob Fick said. “We don’t think we are going to see a return to the levels of 2006 or 2007 before 2025 or 2030.”

Staffing Creates More Jobs
Results of First Quarter Employment and Sales Survey
Employment in the U.S. staffing industry in the first quarter of this year ticked up compared with the same period last year, according to survey data released today by the American Staffing Association. It was the first such improvement after nine consecutive quarters of year-to-year declines.
America’s staffing companies employed an average of 2.0 million temporary and contract workers per day from January through March. That’s an increase of 0.8% from the same quarter last year. In contrast, staffing employment in the first quarter of last year was down 27.9% from the same period in 2008.
“Staffing employment started to grow last July as the economy began to recover from the recession,” says Richard Wahlquist, ASA president and chief executive officer. “But the staffing industry took such a massive blow early last year—demand dropped 30%—that it has taken months of improving conditions to show up in year-to-year comparables. Over the past several months, the staffing industry has been creating more private sector jobs than any other industry in the U.S. We are optimistic that America’s staffing companies will continue to show robust job growth in the second half of this year.”
Staffing sales in the first quarter of this year totaled $14.3 billion, according to ASA survey results, a 10.2% increase over the same period last year. This was the first instance of year-to-year sales improvement since the first quarter of 2008.
