Survey: Finance, Accounting Hiring To Remain Flat
By Matthew L. Brown
Hiring is predicted to remain flat in the accounting and finance industries, according to a survey by Robert Half Finance.
The Robert Half International Financial Hiring Index found that 3 percent of CFOs plan to lay employees off during the first quarter, an improvement over the 6 percent that said they would lay off employees during the previous quarter.
However, a full 84 percent of CFOs said they expect to make no changes to their staffing levels during the quarter.
Just 6 percent said they would be hiring.
Employees that retain their jobs will have more work to do, too. CFOs surveyed said they were "very confident" that they would see business growth during the first quarter.
