How Teaming Up With a Staffing Agency Can Benefit Your Business
April 14, 2021
Having trouble hiring? Don’t have time to invest in the process? Afraid of a big hiring mistake? A staffing agency can help you to hire qualified candidates and save you time and money in the process. Here’s how.
Help with sourcing and screening candidates.
When you work with a professional candidate, you’ll get a partner in your business success. They’ll have a recruiter meet with you to learn about your company, your hiring needs, and the culture. This will help them successfully find and screen candidates for your role. You’ll be able to hire faster and get better-quality candidates all with less hassle.
This means you won’t have to spend hours reviewing resumes, searching for those right-fit candidates. You also won’t have to set aside time for phone screens and preliminary interviews. Likewise, the staffing agency will handle any background and reference checks. You’ll simply get higher-performing talent, quickly and affordably.
Avoid costly hiring mistakes.
Hiring new employees is always a risk for companies. There’s a chance the new hire won’t be happy on the job or there will be a misalignment with their skills and the role or their personality and the culture. When this occurs, it can disrupt productivity and lead to even more turnover.
When you work with a staffing agency, you can reduce the risk of a bad hire dramatically. You’ll be working with professional recruiters who have developed a robust network of both active and passive candidates. These are individuals who have been pre-screened, qualified and are ready to go to work.
A staffing agency also has rigorous processes in place for interviewing and testing candidates to ensure they’re a good fit for you. They’ll only send you those final few who offer the right mix of hard and soft skills.
Get a partner who can keep your workforce flexible.
When you want your company to grow, you need the right people in the right positions. A staffing agency can help ensure this happens. They can help you find individuals with specialized skills, as well as provide you with a mix of options for direct staffing, as well as temporary and temp-to-hire staffing. This enables you to stay flexible and ramp up when needed, so you can meet customer expectations, maintain your competitive edge, and continue to grow.
