Fact Sheet
Overview:
The Ascher Group is a human resources contract staffing
firm, which is widely recognized as an industry expert
in workforce and job market trends. Its roots reach
back to 1981 when it was founded as an executive search
company. Since then, Susan Ascher, the founder, president
and CEO has successfully transformed The Ascher Group
to meet the ever-growing need in today's business climate
for human resources professionals on an interim basis.
With clients ranging from Fortune 500 to emerging growth
companies, The Ascher Group is the premier provider
of HR contract professionals.
Clients and Candidates:
The Ascher Group's clients are both large and small
companies. What they have in common is the need
to have top-notched professionals ready to provide
immediate professional services for their company
when the need arises. The services provided by The
Ascher Group afford them access to world-class HR
professionals, quickly and without the constraints
associated with full time employment.
Candidates recruited by The Ascher Group to staff
these contract HR employment needs are as varied as
the client base. From displaced workers, to mothers
returning to the workforce, to the ever-growing senior
population, contract employment offers candidates job
flexibility not available in a full-time position.
According to Susan Ascher, "They are much more in charge
of their own destiny."
More than ninety-percent of clients and candidates
alike are repeat customers of The Ascher Group.
