There are signs that the current recession could end soon in the U.S., which means employers may be considering their hiring strategy for when the economy turns around.

According to the Employment Dynamics and Growth Expectations Report, compiled by Robert Half and CareerBuilder, technology jobs and customer service positions may be the first to be added when the job market improves.

Respondents to the survey said they see customer-facing roles as the most critical for their operations and said they are most likely to hire IT professionals, customer service workers and sales employees.

The report also reveals that in the next 12 months, 40 percent of companies say they plan to hire contract, temporary or project workers.

Meanwhile, more than half (53 percent) intend to add full-time staff members and 39 percent are looking to take on part-time workers within the same time period.

There is also some promising news regarding salaries over the next several months. Some 40 percent of hiring managers said they will use pay raises to retain top performers when the economy improves.
