About

Founded by Laurie Liechty, CPC in 1989, Contemporary Personnel Staffing is the leading staffing, executive placement and retained search firm in Central New York. What started as a staff of two has steadily grown to our current team of 25 recruiting professionals. We are proud to be the largest independently owned full service staffing and recruitment firm in Central New York. What’s more, we are nationally accredited as a Woman-owned Business Enterprise and are proud to have been recognized as the Greater Syracuse Chamber of Commerce “Business of the Year” in both 2005 and 2007.
   

We are a client-driven organization, and we listen to the needs of our partners and understand what drives their business. In 1996, Laurie recognized that our clients needed more customized, higher level recruiting services--and Professionals Incorporated was born.Today, Professionals Incorporated is the leader in executive recruitment & retained search in CNY—and beyond. Our certified recruiters each have a specialized niche, and concentrate their recruiting around specific disciplines.

Being on the leading edge of our industry, we are constantly looking at market trends and employment statistics. Recognizing the inevitable labor shortage, we have formed a new division in an effort to help our client partners recruit from a previously untapped labor pool. Our Boomerangers division was launched in 2008, and specifically targets a large segment of the workforce that has historically been overlooked. Mature workers re-entering the workforce, stay-at-home parents who are ready to get back into the corporate world and a vast group of talented professionals comprise this group. This concept is growing in popularity, and truly is a win-win for all involved: our client partners can choose from a pool of skilled and dependable workers, and our candidates get meaningful work with great companies on a temporary or contract basis.
