 PROFILE
Spherion isn't your father's temp firm. The firm (formerly Interim Services) generates 45% of sales through traditional temporary staffing but has expanded into managed staffing, software development, information technology consulting, search and recruitment, and outsourcing (customer care, records management), among other services. It operates through a network of more than 1,000 company-owned, franchised, or licensed offices throughout Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America. The firm has relied on acquisitions to boost operations; its purchase of rival Norrell added nearly 400 offices to Spherion's portfolio.
