IT / Engineering

1965. Gordon Moore. Intel Corp.

Four years after the first integrated circuit was created, Moore observed a logarithmic growth in the number of transistors per circuit. He predicted chip development would continue doubling every couple of years. "Moore's Law" remains generally true today and has been an important benchmark for the information technology, hardware, and software engineering fields.

More than circuits and technology, changes today are society- and career-related. On the line is your job, those of your colleagues, and those you seek to fill as a hiring authority. Focused decision-making is crucial to your individual professional success and that of your company.

The Nature of Our Nature

We use a variety of tools to find candidates who exactly match - or exceed - our clients' expectations. These "usual suspects" include applicant and client referrals, networking, word-of-mouth, Internet sourcing, career and job fairs, trade publications, and warm-calling. One method, however, that distinguishes our work is the relationships we have with partner specialty staffing companies.

Depending on the market conditions, this has included strategic partnerships involving a minority-owned company with links to H1B visa-eligible specialists with skills sought by client businesses. By coordinating our individual styles into one mutual approach, we are able to complement our local and domestic pool of candidates with foreign engineers and programmers to meet our client companies' needs.

Additionally, we have served as the subcontractor to large national and multinational staffing vendors. These staffing companies often will hold "master vendor" status with large corporations. We work with them to provide specialized expertise.

As in our other divisions, IT/engineering jobs include both temporary (short- and long-term) and full-time positions. All IT/engineering candidates placed in temporary assignments are W-2 employees of Staffing Solutions.

Moore's Law

Moore's Law applies not only to chip development. At Staffing Solutions, we find it an apt metaphor for the approach we take in working with our candidates and client companies:

All is dynamic; nothing is static. Those who don't move get left behind. Know it, learn it, live it.

Everyone is a candidate, and candidates must always seek to expand their quivers of professional skills. Upgrade your talent arsenal. If you are an employer, failing to look to the road ahead will leave you lapped by your competitors. Refresh your technical staff.

Call us. Let's talk. Even if it's only about a good happy hour in town.
