Staffing My Team: Can’t I Do This on My Own?

I know what you’re thinking. We hear it all the time. Can’t I just handle staffing for my team on my own? The answer is yes- you can do this on your own. But, why would you want to?

Your time is so valuable and you have a multitude of things on your plate. Things like open enrollment, payroll, compliance, and the list go on and on. According to TotalJobs, the HR Elite spends 6.4% of their time recruiting. What if you could get that time back? When you partner with the right staffing firm, you can get assistance to help you recruit for your positions, which frees you up for other projects related to employee relations and retention programs.

Staffing: By the Numbers

Staffing in Austin and San Antonio is hard! And we all know that sorting through hundreds of resumes submitted through job boards can be cumbersome, costly and time-consuming. According to a Glassdoor survey, the average job receives 250 applications and leads to 4-6 interviews. In the staffing world, we understand your pain points on a larger scale! Working with a staffing agency allows you to quickly filter through applications and receive pre-qualified talent who is actively interested in interviewing for your position.

Job Staffing Services Fact or Fiction: The Truth About Employment Agencies

Job Staffing Services Fact or Fiction: The Truth About Employment Agencies

job staffing services, placement agencyWhether you’re an employer or a job seeker, chances are you’ve heard of job staffing services in major cities like San Antonio or Austin. But what exactly have you heard? Unfortunately, there’s a lot of misinformation about what it entails to work with a placement agency. Let’s take a closer look and see what’s fact and what’s fiction.

Job Staffing Services are Expensive

There is a cost to the employer to work with an employment agency. However, the costs can easily be justified. Is it the best use of time as an employer to be posting jobs, sifting through resumes, conducting various rounds of interviews, and doing background checks? Your time is money and that time could be spent focusing on furthering your business goals. Not to mention that your area of expertise is not likely to be recruiting. What happens if you go through weeks or even months of hiring someone new only to realize shortly after that you made the wrong hiring choice? A placement agency specializes in bringing you only the candidates who are the best fit for your business. If you’re a job seeker, there is simply no cost to you for working with an agency.

Do Employment Staffing Agencies Help Train Temporary Staff?

Do Employment Staffing Agencies Help Train Temporary Staff?

employment staffing agencies, temp to hire staffing Using employment staffing agencies can be a great way to save time and money when you need to recruit and hire for temporary or temp to hire staffing. You need someone qualified quickly, and an agency can help provide that candidate with as little fuss on your part as possible. While agencies are best known for recruiting temporary workers, that is not all that they do. They do provide other services, such as training and helping new staff integrate into your office environment.

Training, development, and integration can sometimes take months for a permanent employee. With a temporary worker or a temp to hire staffing position, you need to shrink that process down to days, minutes, or even hours. The new staffer needs to be able to fit in on the first day so that you don’t lose any productivity. Since you are in a time crunch, you do not have the time in your schedule to provide such training. Luckily, employment staffing agencies can provide that service so that candidates get to your office ready to work immediately. Here are three ways they can help with training temporary staff before they get to you.
