Have You Joined Staffing Works?
We created a new online community to help professionals in the staffing industry come together and deal with the challenges we are all facing.
If you are already a Slack user, the Workspace is staffing-works.
If you are new to Slack, you can join the group here.
The group, which is now more than 300 strong, is a place for staffing professionals to discuss sales, marketing, recruiting, technology and other issues that are impacting your company. It is completely free to participate, and just one more thing we’re doing to help staffing professionals thrive in this economy.
