80% Of Companies Expect To Add Staff This Year
The results of a recent client survey conducted by JSfirm
regarding the hiring outlook for aviation companies in 2010 shows
an increase in hiring by aviation firms, according to managing
partner Sam Scanlon. "Everyone wants to know what to expect
this year, who will be hiring, for which type of positions and
when," Scanlon said. "Eighty percent (80%) of the companies
surveyed expect to hire in 2010, with 72% of these positions being
filled equally over the first three quarters. Our results show that
the greatest demand for talent will likely be in production
(assembly / maintenance) and then flight crew. There will also be
healthy growth in the areas of sales, engineering, and management
positions."
JSfirm.com, an online employment and resume search tools for
aviation professionals, conducted the survey using its extensive
database of aviation companies that have relied on using the
website to post jobs, search resumes, and find aviation talent for
over 10 years. Scanlon says "To get the pulse of the
industry, we reached out to human resource professionals,
executives, and the hiring managers."
JSfirm has clientele in nearly every segment of the aviation
industry, ranging from commercial to military operations and
enveloping both the helicopter and fixed wing sectors.
Scanlon states, "Our survey results indicate that we can expect
steady growth in various groups across the board."
How is the first quarter of 2010 shaping up? Scanlon
proudly reports "Great! JSfirm.com reached an all time high of 8.2
million hits in January. We have also experienced a 22% increase in
job posting activity since October of 2009 and our sales have
doubled since this time last year."
