Camp Hill, PA. - November 14, 2012 – Method3, a leader in the Recruitment Process Outsourcing industry, today announced that ISS would merge with Method3.  Based in Camp Hill, PA, ISS is an IT consultancy with a significant client base in the Mid Atlantic Region.  ISS is the second in a series of planned strategic initiatives by Method3 aimed to supercharge its RPO and consulting ecosystem.  Terms of the transaction are undisclosed.
