    Spectra360 was named amongst the nation’s fastest-growing talent management agencies in 2018 by Inc. Magazine. Our talented candidates are experts in Professional Services and the Light Industrial and Transportation industries and they work on a Contract, Temp to Hire, Direct Hire or Managed Services basis. Recently, Spectra360 reinvented itself as a Talent Management company, shrugging off the previous "Staffing" label. This new categorization brings to light the company's more strategic, long-term methods of building teams to fuel client growth as opposed to simply filling vacant positions. "We have worked with many of our clients for several years, as an extension of their HR team. We understand their goals and actively build databases of candidates with specific talents that will continue to fuel their growth." said Andrew Bergen, Spectra360 CEO. "Working closely with clients over time, we can anticipate growth spurts and upcoming projects, and find the necessary talent, while also considering the culture of the teams that our candidates will join. This makes us faster at our job, and ultimately makes our clients more profitable."
