How did your business get started? 10 til 2 was founded in Denver, CO. The three founders of 10 til 2 realized there was a growing need to provide part-time jobs for people who were discontent with the business paradigm that one either had to choose to work full time or to leave the work world after having a family. Hand in hand with that, we knew that there was an enormous need in business for bright, motivated, college educated employees to work in positions that did not require a full time person. In September of 2003 the founding partners of 10 til 2 realized that we could fill this need. We organized 10 til 2 in November of 2003. Our database of college-educated candidates grew rapidly and by January, 2004 we had made our first placement. I opened the first 10 til 2 office in Arizona July 2007.
