Spherion Named to Forbes’ America’s Best Recruiting and Temporary Staffing Firms 2026 List

Forbes’ distinction, based on evaluations from more than 13,000 external recruiters, hiring managers, and job seekers, places Spherion among leading staffing firms in the country. Recognized in Professional Search and Temporary Staffing categories, the ranking reaffirms its reputation for continued performance across the full spectrum of staffing services.

“Being named one of America’s Best Recruiting and Temporary Staffing Firms for the sixth year in a row is especially meaningful because it reflects the incredible work our franchisees and their teams do every day,” said Kathy George, president of Spherion Staffing and Recruiting. “They set a high standard for service, build trusted local relationships, and make a real difference for clients, candidates, and their communities. I couldn’t be more proud of our network.”

In recent months, Spherion also earned the Reputation 800 Award. This recognition identifies organizations that prioritize customer experience and benchmark against industry standards related to service satisfaction. Reputation evaluates honorees using indicators such as review sentiment, volume, responsiveness, and overall brand engagement.

Businesses that achieve a score of 800 or higher are noted as high performers because they significantly outperform Reputation’s industry average score. A portion of Spherion’s locations surpassed a score of 900, illustrating consistency in delivering employment experiences at the local level.

Spherion operates through a network of independent franchisees. Each franchisee connects and facilitates employment opportunities in their community; success is linked to local engagement and reinvestment in neighborhoods.
