Showcase Your Skills at Staffing World 2024—Staffing’s Got Talent!

This year at Staffing World®, the ASA annual convention and expo, ASA is introducing an exciting new event: Staffing’s Got Talent, powered by RefAssured. This competition is your chance to step into the spotlight and share your musical talents with the staffing community—whether you’re a singer, guitarist, pianist, or any other kind of performer.

This isn’t just another competition—it’s a chance for the industry to come together; have some fun; and showcase people’s amazing, and often hidden, talents. And it’s an opportunity for you to share a different side of yourself with colleagues.

  • Showcase your talent: Record a one-minute video of yourself performing a song of your choice—either singing or playing an instrument.
  • Submit your application: Complete the application form, and attach your performance video, by Sept. 6.
  • Compete: The top submissions will be notified by early October and invited to compete live at Staffing World Oct. 22–23.
  • Win: One performer will receive a $500 prize and a free registration to Staffing World 2025.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to shine and share your passion with fellow staffing professionals. Visit staffingworld.net for details.

ASA Offers Resources on Diverse-Owned Businesses

Staffing companies—particularly small businesses and minority-, veteran-, LGBT-, and woman-owned businesses—find they may be able to partner with larger companies that have supplier diversity initiatives in place.

The ASA inclusion, diversity, and equity advocacy (IDEA) group has developed guidance for ASA members interested in partnering with those companies or in becoming a diverse-owned certified business.

Visit americanstaffing.net/diversity for a directory of diversity certification organizations, a glossary of common terms, and more. The ASA IDEA group is sponsored by ASA corporate partners ClearlyRated and Monster.
