THEN: John Chuang, 33, founder of Mactemps, was featured
in our November 1998 "Young Millionaires"article. With an
initial loan of $5,000 that "took months of hard
negotiating" and a small Harvard Square storefront, his
temporary employment agency of Mac-trained personnel spawned
offices in 35 cities and seven countries, and he projected 1998
sales at $130 million.
NOW: Sure enough, Chuang hit that $130 million mark.
Mactemps has since acquired the corporate moniker Aquent and
relaunched into a full-service agency for independent
professionals, including freelancers, contract workers and
temporary employees. Chuang remains CEO, overseeing 41 offices in
10 countries, a Web site, an e-zine (Aquentmagazine.com) and
a niche search engine. Aquent provides experts in Web design, print
design and technology, placing over 35,000 professionals in
permanent and contract positions.
