Nursing, IT jobs top positions filled through staffing firms, research finds

Nursing and IT jobs are those most likely to require the support of third-party recruiting agencies to be filled, according to research released by Wanted Technologies.

The research, which analyzed jobs posted online specifically by staffing firms and the increase or decrease in market demand, found registered nurses, application software developers, and web developers are the occupations that employers are most likely to bring on an external staffing specialist to fill.

Staffing agencies recruited for 25% more registered nurses in 2014 than in prior years, according to the report. IT positions accounted for 70% of occupations on this list.
