American Staffing Association

At ASA, our members span the range of experience, from long-time industry titans to innovative new business leaders just starting out. That’s why we created the Mentor Match program, an online tool that connects mentors and mentees to share experiences and provide guidance to industry peers for career development. Don’t just take our word for it – check out the post below to hear from Natasha Davis on her experience with ASA Mentor Match. This is an #ASAMember exclusive benefit, so learn more about #ASAMembership at americanstaffing.net and apply by this Thursday, Oct. 31!

Why become an #ASAMember? It’s simple – we can help you seize opportunities, solve challenges, and grow your business.

"Between the considerable noise within this week's numbers and lingering risks of further labor market instability, today's JOLTS numbers strengthen the odds of another 25bp cut from a data-dependent and, more recently, labor-conscious, Federal Reserve in November," said ASA chief economist Noah Yosif. Read his full statement on the September #JOLTS report below.

#StaffingWorld is all about giving back to the local community, and each year, attendees support these efforts during our ASA Cares Live events. This past week, volunteers helped put together backpack kits for the Nashville Metro School District's Homeless Education Resource Office. Thanks to our attendees, we were also able to support a local animal shelter by playing with adorable puppies! #ASACaresLive is sponsored by Avionté Staffing Software!

#StaffingWorld 2024 was everything we hoped it would be - educational, inspiring, engaging, and so much fun, and we owe it all to our attendees, exhibitors, speakers, and members. Last week, 2024 chair of the ASA board of directors Joanie Bily capped off a great year by passing the gavel to incoming chair Janette Marx. Thank you to Joanie for your outstanding leadership, and congratulations to Janette - we can't wait to see what this next year will bring!
