Key new client wins and go lives included SkillStorm, Matrix Resources, Addison Search, and Medix in the US, Randstad Technologies and Pentasia in the UK, and Marks Sattin in Australia. This growth led to recognition among Inc.

"This past year saw renewed optimism in staffing and recruiting, creating heightened demand for Bullhorn's progressive, scalable solutions."
Throughout 2010, the company announced ground-breaking new product and service offerings. Geoff Greene, Bullhorn's CTO explains, "We invested heavily in R&D, resulting in some truly innovative capabilities designed to further accelerate our clients' businesses." These include:
