Hiring on the rise in Atlanta

Don’t be surprised if you notice a few new faces in the office this Spring.  According to Manpower, 20% of local companies polled plan to hire, while only 5% plan to lay off workers.

“So that gives us a net employment outlook of 15%,” says regional director of Manpower in Atlanta, Beth Herman.

“And then that other indicator of who plans to maintain is still at a very high level at 69 percent,” she also says.
