Robert Half says client and job seeker caution continued during Q3

“Client and job seeker caution continued during the quarter, subduing hiring activity and new project starts. That said, we are encouraged by the weekly trends in contract talent revenues, which sustained late second-quarter levels for most of the third quarter and began to grow sequentially in September and into October. Our fourth-quarter revenue guidance, at and above the midpoint, reflects a return to sequential growth on a same-day constant currency basis for the first time since the second quarter of 2022. We remain very well-positioned to capitalize on these emerging opportunities and meet our clients’ evolving talent and consulting needs.”
