Naturally, companies are apprehensive about the economic slowdown, with many cutting costs by downsizing or rightsizing. Yet they still need to remain competitive and able to respond to an increase in demand. Interim resource can operate at manager, senior manager, director, chief operating officer and managing director level and provide a flexible resource that can be turned on and off at will.
