Career Connection: Why Our Custom Staffing Approach Works

Do you need to hire some new staff, but lack the time to write and post job listings, sift through resumes, sit through endless interviews, and then decide who you want to hire? A staffing agency may be just the solution you need. Benefits of working with a staffing agency include:

Helping out HR:

Human resources is a busy department, and your team may already have their hands full taking care of your existing employees and making sure all regulations are met. A staffing agency can take over most of the hiring duties, taking that additional burden off your HR department.

Relieving your staff:

Just because a position is open doesn’t mean there is any less work to be done. Your staff may be feeling stretched thin from doing their own jobs plus covering the open position. With a staffing agency, you can quickly bring on temp workers to fill the gap while you search for the right full-time candidate.

Boosting flexibility:

The year 2020 taught us that everything can change overnight. As we emerge from the pandemic, many companies are choosing to keep their full-time teams lean and agile, bringing in additional temporary or full-time workers as needed rather than immediately returning to full employment.

On-Site Career Recruitment

Not all staffing agencies are the same. At Custom Staffing, we’re committed to offering our clients a wide variety of ways to attract just the right team members. Our Career Connection on-site hiring events are carefully crafted to meet the needs of employers looking for dedicated, career-minded team members.

Career Connection is not just a hiring blitz. It’s a targeted networking event that allows potential candidates to tour the company and meet with both hiring managers and company leaders. You get to see and assess candidates throughout the day, and they get a better understanding of what it would truly be like to work for you.

Your local Custom Staffing office will plan the event with you. Exactly how you want to approach it is up to you, but we suggest that you give talks on the company’s history and future, why employees enjoy working for you, and most importantly, the pay and benefits structure. We also encourage you, to the extent possible, to provide live demonstrations of your core products and production processes. The goal is to be as transparent as you can about what a career with your company is truly all about.

Later in the day, consider conducting one-on-one interviews with interested candidates. This gives your HR department a chance to get to know each person, including his background, skills, and long-term interests, and map out the career possibilities that might be open to him.

At Custom Staffing, we’ve found that Career Connection is a successful and highly satisfying alternative to the traditional hiring process. We encourage you to download our brochure and then contact us to learn more.
