Transportation
& DistributionTransportation companies, particularly those involved in logistics, have a constant need for high-volume hiring to meet fluctuating demand, especially during peak seasons like holidays. This is compounded by high turnover rates, particularly for frontline positions like drivers and warehouse workers.
As e-commerce continues to grow, these companies are increasingly relying on automation to scale their hiring efforts.
