Staffing Industry Analysts Favorite Staffing Videos

We had a great time last week at the 21st Staffing Industry Analysts Executive Forum.  Thanks to everyone who participated.

One of my favorite moments during the Forum was getting to share some of our favorite staffing videos during Staffing Industry Report Live.  There has truly been an explosion of video creativity in the industry over the past few years.  We asked for nominations from all of you and received a deluge of offerings.  At their best, staffing videos can differentiate a business, entertain and help raise the bar for the industry.

And failing all that they can also just be straight out hilarious!

Take a look at our favorites and let me know what you think.
