2009
Summary
The
demand for experienced IT professionals has been improving steadily through the
year, for both permanent positions and contract assignments in the private
sector and contract assignments with the Ontario Ministries.
We
added three new Account Managers (two in the first quarter and one in the third
quarter) and we have added another Recruiter. We are very pleased with the
additions to the Account Management and Recruitment teams.
Expectations
for 2010
The
demand for IT professionals should continue to improve and with the additions to
our Account Management and Recruitment teams, we expect considerable increase in
the number of requirements and resulting placements.
We
are planning to add one more Account Manager and one more Recruiter. If you
are aware of a good Account Manager/Recruiter looking to make a move, I would
certainly appreciate your help in having the individual contact me directly.
