I’m thrilled to announce that Bullhorn has acquired Able. Many of our customers may be familiar with them as a provider of candidate engagement and onboarding solutions tailored to the Bullhorn platform and a long-standing Bullhorn Marketplace partner. This acquisition represents another important step in our vision to help our customers provide an incredible experience to their talent.

After a demanding 2020, in the last year, the staffing industry has seen tremendous growth and opportunity. According to Staffing Industry Analysts, staffing industry revenue grew by 16% in 2021 to a record-high total of $157.4 billion and is projected to continue to grow in 2022. Throughout all this, our customers have stepped up to meet the need for talent across the key industries driving our economy forward today.

While the future is bright, enormous challenges remain.
