Let’s be real. Hiring employees is stressful. Whether it’s seasonal or for a permanent position, it’s an all-consuming task. It takes a lot of time, is expensive, and there isn’t even a guarantee the new hire will work out. Fortunately, staffing and recruiting agencies are just the solution.
Before you begin recruiting, you first have to find an agency. Do your research on the agencies in your area and find one with a mission you can connect with. Finding a specialized staffing agency can gain you access to a network of talented candidates looking for work. If you are in the Toronto area, Live Assets is a boutique agency that specializes in the IT industry. Focusing all our energy on Information and Technology allows us to be experts in the field and become industry leaders.
How a staffing agency can help you recruit employees
Can fill a variety of placements
A staffing agency can help fill a variety of position types. These typically look like:
Temporary or contract – a candidate who works with a staffing firm and works in the client’s business for a particular period.
Temporary to permanent – a candidate works on a trial basis and is then placed into a specific position.
Permanent placement – the candidate is recruited by the agency and then hired by the client.
Don’t think that a staffing agency is only for finding temporary workers. At Live Assets, we want to assist our clients in filling all hiring needs, whether a contract or a permanent position.
Huge candidate network
Recruiting agencies already have a massive network of people at your fingertips. An agency has what feels like endless candidates ready to be selected from passive to active job seekers. Live Assets has a database of 15,000+ candidates, all educated and skilled to work in the IT industry. Our database is compiled of diverse candidates, all with their own unique skillsets.
Industry expertise
Specialized staffing agencies such as Live Assets know the ins and outs of the industry. Their mission is to keep up with industry trends so that they can make appropriate recommendations and get you set up with the best candidates for your business. As a client, you can gain access to this knowledge to grow your business further.
Help with onboarding
If you are hiring a temp, it is easy to let them slip through the cracks. The onboarding process for a temporary worker doesn’t have to be as intense for full-time staff but should still include some basic on-the-job training to get them settled. If you are working with a staffing agency, they can help take care of the onboarding and other tasks like payroll.
