Whether your company is hiring domestically or internationally, staffing outsourcing services can be an invaluable resource for recruiting the talent you need to meet business goals. With their robust networks of qualified candidates and streamlined processes, staffing outsourcing services can fast- track your recruitment and onboarding.
With more than 8.8 million job vacancies as February 2024 in the U.S. alone, chances are, your organization has important positions fill. A recruitment strategy that includes staffing outsourcing services can help find the people you need, efficiently and effectively, especially during situations when your company:
  • Experiences rapid growth or expansion that requires hiring additional staff to keep up with demand
  • Needs to fill specialized or hard-to-fill positions, especially positions that are a challenge to fill locally
  • Has seasonal or temporary staffing needs, or special projects that need staff for a limited amount of time
In the scenarios above, a recruiting agency can help get your company’s vacancies filled, which not only eases the logistical burden of recruitment, but it also cuts down on the costs accrued due to this vacant role, as well as the revenue you miss out on by not having this role filled.
And if your company is expanding into other countries, a process during which recruiting and hiring needs will take on further complexity, a recruiting agency can help prepare you for factors that are specific to international hiring, such as navigating employment laws, language barriers, time zone management and cultural differences.
Whether hiring domestically or internationally, staffing agencies can be an invaluable resource to your companies as you recruit and hire workers.

How to find staffing outsourcing services providers

When you’re ready to work with a staffing outsourcing services provider, an online search can yield a wealth of information, providers with strong online presences and positive reviews from other clients are especially worthy of consideration.
In addition to online searches, other options to find staffing outsourcing services providers include:
  • Asking for referrals from other companies in your industry that have used these services. Not only can this produce recommendations from trusted sources, but you'll also learn about the experiences other companies have had with the provider.
  • Contacting industry associations to see if they have a list of recommended staffing outsourcing services or recruitment agencies that specialize in your industry.
  • Checking job boards to see if providers have posted openings and are actively hiring for positions like the ones you need to fill.
  • Attending conferences and events to network with other companies and learn about staffing outsourcing services that specialize in your industry.
Once you have identified potential staffing outsourcing services, the next step is to thoroughly research each.

Evaluating staffing outsourcing services providers

Choosing the right provider will play a critical role in connecting your company with candidates that will best serve your company’s needs.
As you vet each service provider, keep these considerations in mind:
  • Expertise and experience: It wouldn’t be wise to enlist a staffing outsourcing service provider that specializes in the manufacturing industry if you need to hire workers in the tech industry. Instead, choose a provider with experience in your industry or field, who can translate their understanding of your specific needs into tailored solutions that meet your requirements.
  • Quality of candidates: Narrow your choices down to providers who have proven track records of delivering high-quality candidates that match your requirements and expectations.
  • Cost-effectiveness: The provider you’re looking for should offer competitive pricing and be able to deliver results within your budget parameters.
  • Speed and efficiency: Consider providers that can quickly and efficiently identify and screen candidates and is clear about the interviewing process.
  • Communication and transparency: Communication is critical in all business dealings, but particularly when outsourcing, and especially when outsourcing internationally. Select a recruitment services provider that is responsive and transparent in their communication with you, has streamlined processes, gives regular updates and meets your expectations of professionalism.
  • Reputation and references: Focus on providers that have strong track records of success, as well as positive reviews and references from other clients.
Evaluating staffing outsourcing services providers against these criteria empowers you to choose the provider best suited to meet your specific staffing needs and provide you with the highest quality candidates and services.
