Reasons for Utilizing a Staffing Agency

There are countless benefits of outsourcing the recruiting process for permanent positions (Direct Hires) to a staffing agency or utilizing their services for contract or temporary staffing. Here are a few reasons why staffing agencies can help you.

Recruiting Solutions

Depending on the type of background or skill set you need, a staffing agency may be able to help fill your open positions. The staff at the staffing agency has access to an unparalleled database of candidate resumes and will take a holistic approach in finding that perfect match for your team.

Hiring Flexibility

When you use a recruiting service or staffing agency, you can hire for a specific project or to fill a full-time position. This flexibility allows you to be able to manage your workforce as needed.

Retention Solutions

When your staffing agency provides long-term temporary workers, you can grow your team and develop the talent within those employees, while fulfilling that short-term position requirement without the commitment of hiring full time.

Performance Feedback

A staffing agency can measure performance to ensure that your team is fully productive and delivering on the project.

Time Savings

You may find yourself saving time, money, and resources by utilizing a staffing agency or recruiting service. By using a staffing agency, you may be able to scale your recruitment process to meet the needs of your growing business and minimize the need for additional staff.

Saving Costs

Acquiring workers through a staffing agency provides you with a cost effective way to quickly expand your team with under-utilized talent. Many organizations are looking at sourcing diverse talent as part of their workforce development strategy. However, finding employees from underrepresented backgrounds is costly. A staffing agency can provide the diversity you need at the right price.

Competitive Pricing

When you use a staffing agency, you are able to benefit from a lower labor budget as opposed to hiring employees with a traditional payroll approach. This may result in savings in labor costs as well as time savings for managing your workforce.

Promote Diversity

Recruitment is an important aspect of diverse talent being hired into your organization. A staffing agency can help promote diversity within your team and work towards a more diverse workforce, which will benefit both your organizational goals and the financial bottom line.
