Candidates & Talent

Candidates get FREE job help and quick placements to make cash while our staffing firm continues to search and work with the temporary employee to find their dream job within their current company assignment or to try new jobs in other industries. These quick staffing opportunities give candidates hands on education: business & technology experience, training, and allow recruiters to keep developing and creating well-prepared working professionals to be placed in temporary or permanent roles for clients.

Staffing Temporary Employees

Temporary staffing refers to a part-time or full-time position that can end at any moment or extend past set timelines without warning. Temporary employment is project based, demand based, and/or sometimes cyclical or seasonal work. Temporary employees rarely receive health benefits, job security, paid time off, paid lunch breaks, etc. This gives being called a "temp" a condescending tone and bad reputation in a world that demands a better job title and "careers."

Regardless of what you may have heard about temp agencies, they help employers with their workforce needs and help qualified candidates find positions faster. This business relationship eliminates workforce gaps in the local market and helps any specific industry or business facing workforce challenges to fill their open roles easier & faster using flexible staffing solutions.

Please don't be afraid to try temp staffing agencies as the recruiters are usually entirely contingency based or performance based (at least in the United States). You only pay when you get workers with the expertise & skills that actually support a new business contract or your short-term projects!

Temporary Staffing Services

The truth is that temporary staffing is required in almost every industry, at every size company, and in every type of business. As a candidate, if you are hard up for cash, our staffing firm can literally put you to work at a local business or company today! Don't have a car? We have bus line accessible positions in addition to those that require private transportation.

Our recruiters will find you a job at an ideal pay rate, but please give us some time! If we can't find your ideal pay rate today, we still have jobs lined up for those eager to earn quick cash. We prefer to get any unemployed job seekers working FIRST and then work with the entire staffing company on placing them in the best short-term staffing opportunity, temp to hire, or direct hire placement we can arrange. We want happy temporary employees and we want to keep local businesses running!

Consider our temporary staffing services team as acting like your talent agent and/or broker! We get you the best we possibly can to start with based on your experience & skills. Then we continue to work with you to develop a long-term career strategy to help you find your dream job!

If you don't like a temp job, don't vibe with the team, hate the work conditions or work environment, or don't have ideal pay in a role - we will continue to move you between our clients and roles until we get a best fit match scenario. This offer stands so long as you are willing to always communicate with a recruiter and maintain a positive attitude.

Dream job aside for a second, in the mean time, you can be getting a regular paycheck and we can be having regular conversations and learning from you about what job title, positions, and locations make sense for your ideal work life balance, preferences, and life goals!

We believe job seekers should have an active say in their work hours, office setting, job location, and business / industry type. We care and pay close attention to your expertise, skills, resources, and needs. Our solution results in awesome reviews from candidates and companies who have patience and continue active communication with recruiters.

Short Term Jobs & Flexible Staffing

We are upfront and transparent with our candidates about how long projects "could" last and we reinforce that we can't guarantee any temp or temp to hire position. We understand it is hard to trust an individual employer to give you scheduled hours and get you paid. Additionally, companies get acquired, departments & managers change, people don't agree with evolving company core values, don't fit in the workplace environment, are a bad personality or culture fit, have undesired tasks, etc.

By working with a recruiter or a temporary staffing services provider, you protect yourself from being backed into a corner or pigeonholed into one option. A recruiter gives you access to a talent pool of job seekers if you are the employer or a job pool if you are the candidate. Either way, the recruiter’s resources and network become your support to finding a high-quality, short-term solution!

Temp To Hire or Contract to Hire

Over the course of time, as job seekers / talent gain experience or increase their goals / aspirations, temporary / temp to hire staffing agencies can help employers convert temp staff into full-time employees. This provides a business the flexibility to vet, try, and modify workforce needs on the fly without risk.

With flexible staffing solutions, at any moment a temporary or temp to hire employee can become a direct hire employee and transition over to your company and payroll. Or if things "aren't working out," a replacement can be quickly provided. This flexibility makes human resources processes and the hiring decision less stressful for the employer doing the search. Our recruiters care and pay attention to your precise needs and provide flexible staffing services that make sense for your business and/or hiring process.

Direct Hire

If temps or temp to hire aren't your desired staffing services - we offer custom staffing solutions for those seeking direct hire recruiting. We find, tag, and follow highly qualified candidates around online in specific geographic location(s) based on your criteria. We screen them and load them into our resume bank, a database of candidates we keep & curate daily. Our recruiters work with potential hires and talent to find industries, locations, and clients they are interested in. When we get matches for a company, we schedule the interviews and make the connection happen!

Direct hire makes recruiting / staffing firms partners with the company or business hiring, rather than acting as the actual hiring agency or hiring manager. In temp staffing agencies or temp divisions, the employee works for the staffing agency and receives payments and benefits from the staffing firm instead of your business. The talent acts as outsourced talent or daily workers for companies and the staffing firm handles all aspects of the hiring process.

Temporary (Temp To Hire) Hiring Process

Our temp staffing recruitment process includes job fairs, networking, job boards, SEO, paid advertising, and a combination of other digital recruiting techniques to keep our talent pool full. To be added to our database, each candidate gets rigorously vetted by our recruiters.

Resume Screening

Every resume submitted to us goes through a two-part screening. First, the resume is manually reviewed and vetted for accuracy by our recruiters. This includes full resume verification, employment verification, and reference checks.

We also upload all resumes into our cloud based resume bank that parses the candidate data into a user friendly format for our recruiters to analyze. Our recruiters consistently curate, update, and re-qualify our talent. Our applicant tracking system ensures we continue to record feedback, improve matches, and make progress placing the best talent into open positions.

Candidate Screening

We use a combination of phone interviews, carefully engineered questions, and interactive methods to capture as much data as possible about each individual candidate. We try to spend more time & create extra interactions with our talent to build the relationship. These additional conversations turn into data points which enable us to analyze and produce higher quality matches. With more accuracy, it is easy for us to find best fit scenarios for both the potential temporary employees & employers doing the hiring. Some of the recruit screening and data gathering processes we use are:

Resume Verification
Employment Verification
Reference Checks
Phone Interviews
Video / Skype Interviews
Interactive Candidate Questionnaires
Sex Offender Registry Check
Background Checks
Drug Screens
Social Media Background Screening
Government Security Clearances

Pre-Employment Background Checks & Security Clearances

Staffing agencies are often trusted & tasked with investigating and vetting potential candidates on behalf of clients. This is not typically an in-house service, rather a managed & outsourced service that includes requesting candidate information, paying for background checks, scheduling screenings, and security clearances. This also requires staffing agencies to maintain active communication and relationships with state agencies, private security firms, and online / digital background screening solutions & technology.

Sex offender registry checks do not happen by default - each client and company has their own requirements. However, most employers are asking for this to be apart of their hiring process these days. We strongly recommend adding this to screenings for your temp workers. Ask for State, Federal, and Sex Offender in your background check process for hiring new workers.

More in-depth background checks on workers can be done for employers seeking intelligence on their digital footprint & social media accounts. We also process high security clearance checks for government facilities and military bases which may look into a candidate’s background all the way back to the day they are born. These comprehensive screenings are more expensive but are often a requirement of state, military, health, education, and government contractors. All new hires for these types of businesses must pass screenings before they are interviewed / considered for office, warehouse, production, or contractor agency work.

Drug Screening for Employers

Temp work often includes warehouse, manufacturing, construction, production, and hands-on job types. These positions include dangerous, heavy-duty, mechanical equipment, automated machinery, & fabrication technology. Due to roles already being a risk, temp hires must be drug free for 90 days prior to starting most positions. Drug screenings prevent injury, damage, loss of life, and cover the hiring business from liabilities and accidents on the job caused by conditions outside their control.

Recruitment Guarantee

Do staffing agencies guarantee their work? Yes, a reputable staffing agency will offer you some sort of guarantee that replaces any employee who does not meet your criteria or does not fit in your work environment up to 90 days.

Sometimes there are pro-rated refunds, future credits or discounts, or other logistical accommodations made but these types of compensation usually fall on the permanent positions that are not as easily or quickly replaced.

In temp staffing, expect to maintain consistent communication to get the best possible recruiter help. Our recruiters search hard until a qualified replacement has been found to fill open positions. In temp positions, the turnover rate is much higher than in direct hire / permanent job placements.

If you are new to using temp agencies, please remember temporary workers pose workforce challenges you may not be use to dealing with. A staffing company helps your business eliminate the hand-holding part of onboarding new employees.

Payrolling Services

A payroll service provider automatically processes regular payroll statements, manages taxes, and sometimes even provides health benefits & retirement benefits for companies who wish to free themselves from the paperwork, liability, and time required to pay employees accurately and on-time.

Having a professional payroll services provider can also reduce your federal and state tax risk by keeping your ledger / books in order. Payrolling services calculate and distribute wages and taxes on the employer's behalf. This type of payment service is typically offered by employment agencies and outsourced human resource management agencies.

How Much Does a Temporary Staffing Agency Cost?

If you are the candidate, the staffing firm should charge you nothing! Employers can expect to pay up to 70% of the hourly wage. In unique and niche technology positions, this rate can often be 2x-5x the hourly rate due to scarcity & demand for high tech & skilled talent. In cases of national disaster or state of emergency opportunities - workers may be paid over time (OT) or additional hazard payments.

What's the Difference Between a Staffing Agency and a Temp Staffing Agency?

A staffing agency or employment agency usually focuses on both temporary and permanent job placements for clients. A temp agency is often exclusive to short-term, temporary, seasonal, and/or temp to hire positions. These terms are often used interchangeably but, due to negative connotations, a "staffing agency" is considered a higher quality staffing solution vs. a temp staffing agency. Much like a job title, this agency title has no effect on services, performance, or delivery of employees.

What is a Temporary Employee?

A temporary employee can work a part-time or full-time position that may also end at any moment or extend past set timelines without warning. Temporary employees are assigned to project based, demand based, and/or sometimes cyclical or seasonal work schedules. Temporary employees rarely receive health benefits, job security, paid time off, paid lunch breaks, etc. This makes being called a "temp" condescending in a world that demands higher wages, a better job title, and "careers."

How Long Can You Employ a Temporary Employee?

The US Department of Labor (DOL) mandates that temporary employment last no longer than one calendar year and should have a clearly specified end date. You may not hire a temporary employee for more than two consecutive years in a row. Anyone falling outside of these criteria is a full-time employee and is therefore entitled to additional benefits by law.

How Many Hours Can a Temporary Employee Work?

At the time we are writing this, 1,040 hours is the maximum per year. Employers also cannot hire the same employee for two consecutive years. This is often referred to as the thousand hour rule, meaning your company must cap a temporary worker's time at 1,000 hours, or 1,040 hours more precisely.

What are Workforce Management Solutions?

(WFM) software or Workforce Management Software is a program for businesses and employment agencies that manage lots of hourly employees and temporary staff scheduling. These types of applications are designed to achieve and maintain operational efficiency by staffing the correct number of temps, with matching skills, for all the best companies and employers. Workforce management audits enable maximum profitability for all parties involved. Find the top salary, for the best candidate, at the right company - everybody wins.
