How Staffing Agencies Work


Most staffing agencies operates and focus on a particular sector of the job market, but all functions in the same way - by providing something that matches the labor needs of their corporate or small company clients with qualified personnel who've the skills that meet those needs. Ultimately, staffing agencies manage the human resource needs and requirements of their clients, maintaining and managing thousands of resumes of job seekers and applicants.

A staffing agency would first get a list of requirements provided by the company and a description of the job position they need filled. With the description accessible, the staffing agency would use the information and create a job posting, which they would then filter through potential applicants to obtain the right match for the employer and the employee.

The primary goal for staffing agencies would be to match each applicant with employment. To achieve this, agencies will first interview potential candidates to get to know the applicants and the sort of job they would be most befitted for in both long- and short-term positions. To determine a candidate's capability to work in a particular position, the agency might ask the applicant to take a professional skills test, like a typing test, within their initial interview. Validating a candidate's skills with a wide array of assessments gives a staffing agency an edge in matching the right applicant to his/her dream job and will generally have a database of job seekers' resumes for future opportunities.

Following the assessment tests, the staffing agency would then help the candidate create a interview with a potential employer once the agency has decided they paired the right applicant having an open position. There are two options once the employer is selecting a candidate. The employer can either hire the applicant on a short-term basis or hire him/her directly for a permanent position.

If the employer only really wants to hire the applicant on a temporary basis, they'll pay the staffing agency directly, who then would pay the employee on an agreed-upon salary until the employee is hired permanently. Embarca staffing agencies will charge a one-time fee that your client will pay after the agreed-upon time set by both parties.
