Executive Temps

Underscoring the fast-growing use of temp services to fill professional jobs, accounting giant Deloitte & Touche has spun off an independent company that provides executives for projects such as mergers and acquisitions. Re:sources Connection, formed three years ago as a branch of the accounting firm, has 27 offices with annual revenue of $100 million.

The firm became independent through a management buyout that closed on April 1. Professional and specialty staffing, including accounting and information technology, is the fastest-growing segment of the $63-billion staffing industry.
