Recognizing the Contributions of U.S. Labor and Celebrating Opportunities for the Nation's Workforce

Celebrating Labor Day, Elite Technical is grateful to the thousands of talented workers who have helped us prosper and grow for more than a quarter-century. We couldn’t have done it without the professionalism, skill and commitment of the talented individuals we place or the recruiters, account managers and people who work behind the scenes to make sure we deliver the outstanding service our clients expect.

Labor Day commemorates the social and economic achievements of American workers, as well as their contributions to the strength, prosperity and well-being of our country. First celebrated in 1894 and 1885 through municipal ordinances that were later followed by state ordinances, Labor Day did not become a national holiday until 1909.

Just as the founders of the labor movement understood the power of people, this Labor Day, we are especially cognizant of the power in teamwork. Elite Technical workers are responsible for the ability of our small, woman-owned enterprise to provide 400+ clients with 3000+ professionals over more than 25 years.

Without talented individuals working in the context of a team, America would not have evolved and prospered in a way that has made our nation truly exceptional. As we celebrate Labor Day 2018, Elite Technical encourages our own team members to take time out for well-deserved rest, relaxation, recreation, and recognition.

Good News for Workers

Opportunities abound, especially for technical workers. With the lowest unemployment rate in a half century—according to Fortune and CNN Money headlines—companies across America are competing vigorously for the best and brightest talent. Elite Technical recruiters will continue laboring to expertly match the best talent with the best jobs in the nation. This is good news for workers.

We are grateful to be part of a great country with network of businesses capable of offering opportunities for people at all levels. And as we celebrate Labor Day 2018, we are thrilled that opportunity continues to grow. In fact, the job market for technical workers is better than ever—another reason to celebrate this Labor Day! As we posted in our Speed is the Best Talent Acquisition Strategy blog, IT staff remains the second hardest professional group to fill, outpaced only by skilled trades, such as electricians, carpenters, welders, and plumbers. And, research shows that 76.7 percent of software developers are already employed full time.
