Benefits of working with a specialized staffing company

Fast evolving and emerging businesses are in constant need of employees. Their ever growing appetite for recruitment can only be met with the help of a professional staffing company.  Since these companies are so busy growing they hardly have the time and the manpower to handle the requirementsof their own. Besides they mostly don’t have the human power to run a recruiting campaign. Since employers are looking for a candidate fitting the exact requirements they often rely on the expertise and resources of these recruitment companies. Same goes for temporary as well as seasonal employment.

Although in multinational corporations human resources departments still prevail the trend is changing in case of medium and small tech companies. Small companies neither have the manpower nor the infrastructure needed for running even small scale recruitment dries. Although large companies can offer to run a full scale HR department small tech companies have to manage with a couple of IT sourcers. This arrangement is not enough, in fact it can prove detrimental to company’s rapid growth. Inadequately qualified employees can stall the growth of the company reducing the rate of growth.

A professional staffing agency works on performance basis, meaning it will charge you only for the candidates you have hired whether it is permanent or temporary recruitment. The unprecedented advantage is that you can summarily reject any candidate within the trial period and get a replacement for him, provided he doesn’t fit the profile. Many recruiters offer replacement period up to one month. Temporary staffing can also save you considerable money as you don’t have to pay for medical insurance and other employee benefits.

Seasonal recruitment is hard to fulfill but a seasonal recruitment agency can provide you with reliable and rapid solutions. Being a specialist in seasonal recruitment such company is well equipped with candidate database providing you quick solutions. I have seen many flourishing businesses forming a mutually beneficial partnership with employment agencies for years. Both parties have benefitted immensely from such partnerships.

Like I have mentioned before staffing company can save you a lot of money but you still have to pay them. Real life examples have proven that working with a company charging on hourly basis can lead to considerable confusion regarding final billing. It is better to work with a company that offers flat fee and then charges per the number of successful recruitments. This cost is not very small however it is less compared to maintaining in house HR department or running recruitment campaign on your own.
