"Our footprint is already across the United States, but the economic and population growth here has been something we've had our eye on for a while," said Travis Keller, senior account manager of Aerotek's first Arkansas office."We're a leading provider of technical, professional and industrial staffing, but our scope extends beyond just those areas.Right now, we're doing a lot of networking in northwest Arkansas.We see this being a very busy office, serving the area just north of the Missouri-Arkansas state line to Forth Smith, and even clientele into Little Rock."

Keller said Aerotek plans to open a second office in Little Rock in the coming years, but the company's sights are set on building on its already strong relationship in northwest Arkansas.

"Having a local, Arkansasbased presence will give us the opportunity to expand Aerotek's service offerings for persons seeking jobs and customers looking to fill open positions in the northwest and central parts of the state," Keller said."With the economy growing significantly in this area for the past few years, so has need for the quality employees - a service in which Aerotek can excel."

The new location primarily places employees in accounting and finance, and call-center and corporate professional positions.The office also recently added technical and commercial staffing services to include the placement of experienced engineers, drafters and designers, as well as people looking for employment in light-technical, general-labor, skilled-trades and clerical positions.

"In today's competitive environment, the costs of hiring, attrition and other recruiting and staffing expenses are a major drain on corporations," Keller said.

"We do a lot in the area of professional services and contract engineering, but we do quite a bit with environmental employment, such as cleanup, waste removal, civil-site land development and other areas," Keller said.
