We made it through the 1st quarter, and I am pleased to say things are looking up!
We had a huge improvement from the beginning of the quarter to the end. As I always tell my colleagues, a great indicator of the economy changing, especially in the A&D community, is when a recruiter is busy, then hiring is up and companies are getting projects.
I’m seeing a tremendous focus on ASIA, specifically China - 3 new US clients with China offices agressively hiring. I’m seeing a small surge in higher education projects and actually seeing builders starting to build again.
In addition to being a recuiter, I also am a career coach and professional speaker, and this the season where I start traveling. I’m happy to see that ASID and IIDA are focusing on their members with the tools the members need to get re-employed. For more info on my seminars go to my website at http://interiortalent.com/hireSpeaker/.
The A&D industry will rise again and be greater then in the past. Let us not forget the lessons we have learned and run our businesses smarter, more efficiently and more productively.
In conclusion I would like to wish the UpWorld members a very happy Easter.
Till next month…
Stay Classy Designers!
