A new survey from Accountemps says that many US employers are using incentives and “perks” to attract new employees and keep current ones loyal, in lieu of pay increases.

TransTech IT Staffing wants to meet you! On March 24, we are hosting a JAVA meet and greet pizza party at our new Chicago Loop office! Join us for fun, food, and conversation about how TransTech can help your career! TransTech is a tier one vendor at Chicago companies like Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, Health Care Services Corporation, Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Northern Trust, and many more.

We are excited to announce TransTech is opening our very first downtown location! This new office space is located at 203 N. Wabash, just north of Lake Street. We have a great view of the Trump Tower, and we’re just a few steps away from Michigan Avenue. But what we love best about our new location is how it brings us closer to many of our clients and consultants. We are thrilled to be able to provide even better service to people living and working in the heart of the city.

This month TransTech hit an important milestone. Most of your know that after a slow 2009 (who wasn’t slow then!) 2010 has been a year of rapid growth. We officially have 100 billing consultants across all our clients!

Why are we so excited about this? Hitting triple digits has long been a goal of ours. Not only does it sound impressive, but it also sets TransTech up as a leader in IT recruiting in Chicago. Very few local firms achieve this kind of impact. We are excited about our growth and what larger scale will allow us to do for our clients and consultants (including a big change we’ll announce in the next few months – be on the lookout!).
