What is a staffing agency?

A staffing agency is an agency that provides services to help businesses with hiring. Agencies work with businesses looking to fill open positions in their workforce, and connect those businesses with qualified job candidates to fit their needs. Staffing agencies offer flexible, time-saving services that can help businesses hire both temporary and permanent employees.

What are the benefits of working with a staffing agency?

Working with a staffing agency has plenty of benefits. A staffing agency can speed up and streamline hiring, and letting an agency handle the recruitment process frees up valuable time and resources that your team can use elsewhere. Experienced staffing agencies also have connections, and access to a wider talent pool that help them make sure the job candidate they’re matching you with is the right fit for your company.
