With the hiring market tighter than ever, finding skilled candidates remains a major challenge for our clients. Worse, hiring cycles are lengthening across the board — and the longer positions stay vacant, the greater the cost to employers. 

But even when employers do manage to make a great hire, they're still not out of the woods. That's because employee retention has also emerged as a major concern. In an increasingly tight talent market, employers are forced to provide greater incentives to keep top performers from being snapped up by their competitors.

But that's why we're here. Our clients know that monitoring the job market in today's competitive climate is a full-time job, and that a dedicated partner who specializes in office professionals can help deliver better candidates faster — and at a lower cost — than if they chose to go it alone.

Our extensive talent network allows us to find candidates that may not be available anywhere else, and our high-tech, high-touch approach to staffing ensures that the talent we deliver will be a perfect match for both the position you're looking to fill and the culture of your workplace.

Billing for our services varies depending on the nature of each assignment. But no matter the assignment, our clients always have access to our e-billing system for a streamlined, pain-free payment process.

temporary placement

For temporary placements, billing occurs on a weekly basis. If a candidate gets hired directly, a final conversion invoice is sent before transferring over to payroll.

direct hire

For direct hires, an invoice is sent only when a candidate starts working onsite. Employers then receive a one-time invoice based on a percentage of the candidate’s first-year salary.

temp-to-hire

For temp-to-hire placements, employers are billed hourly only for hours worked by an employee. In addition to accounting for time spent on the job, the bill rate also covers costs related to recruitment as well as payroll, state and federal unemployment taxes.

If you love working with one of our candidates and want to bring them on full-time, you won’t have to wait for a contract to expire. You can hire anytime after making a one-time transition payment based on the number of hours worked by the candidate.

Pricing varies based on a number of factors like the number of candidates you need and the scarcity of the skill sets you’re looking to fill. In general, we set our prices to strike the right balance between quality and value. Considering that the cost of turnover was noted as the most detrimental impact of a bad hire, working with a staffing partner and investing a little up front to get best-fit candidates can actually save you money in the long run.
