TAMPA, Fla., Oct. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Kforce Professional Staffing (NASDAQ:KFRC) has released its 2008 Salary & Employment Guides for its Technology and Finance & Accounting practices.
The guides list job titles, job descriptions and salary information for more than 40 major U.S. markets, as well as commentary on significant industry trends. Unlike guides developed by many Kforce competitors, the salary figures are compiled from data provided by Kforce field managers and associates instead of third-party web sites and historic government figures.
"We believe our method of asking local Kforce offices to share salary data gives readers an accurate, insightful look at the current state of employment in various regions," says Steve McMahan, Kforce chief sales officer. "Our staffing specialists analyze salaries on a daily basis and are in the best position to gauge the impact of a tight labor market on compensation trends."
The guides also provide a brief history of the "knowledge economy" and Kforce's position as a KnowledgeForce. As a professional staffing firm, Kforce caters both to specialized knowledge workers who have generally attained college degrees, and in many cases professional certification, and the client organizations that are most in need of these employees.
"Each year, our Salary & Employment Guides provide readers with an unbiased analysis of the labor market through articles written by independent industry experts," says McMahan. "This year, the commentary discusses the relationship between the knowledge economy and a new kind of professional that has emerged. By sharing our collective experience and knowledge of the staffing industry, we believe we impart a better sense of the existing labor market and a vision of what may be expected in the future."
Kforce (NASDAQ:KFRC) is a professional staffing firm providing flexible and permanent staffing solutions for organizations in the skill areas of technology, finance & accounting, health and life sciences, and government solutions. Backed by more than 2,000 staffing specialists, Kforce operates with 67 offices in 41 markets. For more information, please visit our Web site at www.kforce.com.
