“We again delivered sequential growth despite the typical holiday impact during our fiscal third quarter,” said Kate W.

As we look forward, we are rapidly strengthening our business reach especially in digital transformation, healthcare and financial advisory services. As the macro environment continues to evolve, we are experiencing increased interest from both new and existing clients around implementing an agile workforce strategy, and we are well-positioned to capture the multitude of opportunities as clients seek more cost flexibility in their human capital requirements and as talent demands more radical flexibility. RGP is truly built for the Now of Work.”
