PROTECH was featured in the South Florida Business Journal’s article about “Temporary hiring gains more steam.”
Excerpt:
Business is picking up at Protech, a technical staffing firm in Boca Raton, CEO Deborah Vazquez said. Protech’s revenue grew 19 percent, year-over-year, during the first nine months of 2010. And, revenue during the third quarter grew 33 percent, she said.
“I can tell you that our industry is back to prosperity,” she said.
