monster gov. solutions to help hire 270K workers
September 4, 2009
According to an article on Reuters, the Partnership for Public Service released results of a survey estimating that the federal government will be looking to fill more than 270,000 positions, and Monster Government Solutions (MGS) has teamed up with the Partnership to help federal agencies attract and onboard qualified candidates.
The survey is called WHERE THE JOBS ARE 2009: Mission-Critical Opportunities for America, and it outlines government-wide projected hiring needs for the next three years, estimating that the federal government will hire nearly 273,000 new workers for mission-critical jobs by the fall of 2012 — a 41 percent increase in comparison to the previous three fiscal years.
The majority of new federal hires are expected to come in five broad professional fields: medical and public health, security and protection, compliance and enforcement, legal occupations, and administration and program management.
“For federal agencies, this is a great opportunity to capitalize on the number of skilled candidates who are in the market right now,” said Joyce Ceconi, vice president of sales, MGS. “But agencies need to do things differently if they truly want to capture the job seeker audience effectively and drive enough qualified candidates to available jobs. This dramatic hiring need requires a new approach to recruitment. Posting in one place and hoping for the best won’t drive results. At MGS, we work with federal agencies to provide solutions and advice to attract, assess, hire and onboard the top talent they will need to fill these mission critical positions.”
