The Advantage Of Using An Employment Staffing Agency To Hire Employees

As a business you are probably looking for ways that you can save money while still expanding your business. Instead of hiring a whole department of human resource staff, why not consider using an employment staffing agency for your hiring needs? There are several advantages over having an independent agency acting as your human resource department and here are just a few of them.

No overhead

It is not uncommon for a company to have several human resource staff members whose specific job is to find and hire qualified applicants. This can be expensive for a company since not only do you have to pay the professional salaries, but you also have to provide health benefits and office space. Going through an independent employment agency is less expensive since all you will have to pay in most cases is a finders’ fee.

Pre-hiring methods are taken care of

Many companies are relying on an employment staffing agency because they have everything in place to handle pre-hiring testing and evaluations. When a potential employee comes into a staffing employment agency, the agency will have that person fill out all of the employment application paperwork, take a drug test, and test the person on any skills they happen to have, such as forklift driving, typing, reading comprehension and instruction, and math equivalency. A hiring process can be a complicated and lengthy procedure and an agency already has a system in place that smoothly moves the applicant through each step. They have already made contracts with other companies that provide the appropriate testing, assuring of the accuracy of the outcomes of those tests.

Professional interviewing skills used

Interviewing an applicant is a good opportunity to find out more about that applicant and determine whether they would be a good fit for your company. However, interviewing is an art in itself, and poor interviewing can result in poor employees and higher turnover rates. Employment agencies base their reputation on the quality of their applicants and so they have taken measures to understand what questions should be asked during an interview that reveals information about that applicant to them. They also understand how to determine deception as well as evaluating a personality type, which can tell the agency what type of environment that person would work best in.

They recruit

If you are a small company, chances are that you do not have the time or money to appear at job fairs in order to attract the right applicants to your company. Recruitment is one of the specialty traits of an employment agency and they make it their business to visit college campuses and appear at public job fairs in an effort to find qualified applicants and people with the right skills that you are looking for. For your part, you simply explain to the agency what you would like in an employee in terms of skills, personality, being able to work well with others, being able to work alone, and other qualifications. The agency will then do their part to recruit employees for you that will fit the specifications you have set.

As you can see, there are several benefits to hiring an employment agency over trying to recruit, test, interview, and hire applicants yourself.
