Specialized Industry Leader
As the first and largest specialist in the placement of accounting, finance and information technology professionals, RHI is uniquely positioned through its various divisions to fill the demand for temporary, full-time and project professionals in these areas.

Employment opportunities in accounting and finance are promising, with jobs for accountants and auditors expected to increase 19 percent from 2000 to 2010, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This includes demand for accounting temporaries, particularly those with solid technical skills. The accuracy and consistency made possible by desktop computing and the latest off-the-shelf accounting software have contributed to the increased use of financial temporaries among businesses.

Technology, business consolidation and globalization are also fueling demand for senior accounting and financial management talent on a project basis. These seasoned professionals handle such initiatives as business process re-engineering and financial systems conversions and upgrades. They are a key resource for companies in the midst of a merger or in a critical startup phase and are also skilled in handling complex issues related to internal audit and tax matters, business planning and financial modeling.

Similarly, experienced professionals are needed on a project or consulting basis in the technology field, which has some of the country’s fastest-growing occupations. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects increases of 82 percent in the number of positions for network and computer systems administrators, and a 97 percent rise for computer support specialists, between 2000 and 2010. It also predicts job growth for software engineers of up to 100 percent, depending on area of expertise, for the same time period. Demand is strong for contract information technology professionals to implement new systems and technologies and to train internal staff members.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics also projects greater demand for administrative support personnel, and anticipates that between 2000 and 2010, close to 2.2 million new jobs will be created in this field. Companies expect these professionals to be highly skilled and to excel at a wider range of duties, use more sophisticated tools and provide optimal accuracy in a fast-paced, competitive environment.
