Vaco Los Angeles Names Joslyn Osborn Recruiting Director of Placement for Finance and Accounting

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Vaco Los Angeles LLC, a leading consulting and executive placement firm specializing in accounting, finance and information technology, today announced that Joslyn Osborn has been promoted to recruiting director of executive placement. Osborn will be responsible for recruiting for permanent positions in finance and accounting and for leading, training and mentoring the team of recruiters in Vaco's Los Angeles office.

"Joslyn has done an amazing job in helping to build the Vaco Financial brand throughout greater LA and has a reputation of delivering quality results to both clients and candidates alike," said Stephanie Keairns, senior partner at Vaco Los Angeles.

"We're seeing an increase in demand for accountants in a broad range of industries, and Joslyn brings extensive expertise and experience in placing the right candidate with the right company," added Frances Moreno, managing partner of Vaco Los Angeles.

With nine years of experience in recruiting, three as a recruiting manager with Vaco Los Angeles, Osborn advises employers to move candidates quickly through the hiring process and keep them engaged throughout.

"In this highly competitive hiring market, there's a shortage of highly qualified finance and accounting candidates. We regularly see companies competing for the same talent, with candidates often receiving multiple offers," said Osborn.

Osborn recruits for a broad range of finance and accounting positions, including CFO, CAO, director of finance, controller, finance manager, accountant, financial analyst, and audit and tax professionals.

Osborn continued, "So often an open finance or accounting position is critical to the daily success of the business, so it's important that while the search process is ongoing, companies consider an interim consultant to manage the job duties and keep the business moving forward in the meantime."

According to Osborn, the most in-demand professionals are those with a CPA and with skills in ERP systems. It's also important for job seekers to demonstrate longevity and tenure in positions, so she advises that it's best to stick with the current job until landing a new one, rather than resigning before getting the next job.
