Your hiring needs aren't one size fits all. Neither are our solutions.

Employment Staffing Models Built for Your Business

Every business hires differently. Some need extra hands during a busy season. Some want to see a candidate in action before making a permanent decision. Others know exactly who they want from day one. We build a hiring approach based around your needs. Not the other way around.

Discovery

We learn your business, your culture, and exactly what the role requires before we start recruiting.

“We find out what makes up your best employees, whether it’s their experience, their attitude, or something else and we work to translate that into our recruiting process.”

Recruiting & Screening

Our recruiters, all Certified Staffing Professionals (CSP), tap an active talent network and screen every candidate on skills, background, and work style before they reach you.

“Our recruiting team screens candidates for the experience, reliability, and qualifications you’re looking for before we send them your way, so you can spend less time sorting through resumes and more time choosing the right person for your team.”

Stephanie Staelgraeve, CSP

Lead Client Specialist

Placement & Support

Our team is involved before, during and after placement, managing onboarding and checking in to make sure the placement is working for everyone.

“Placement isn’t the finish line for us. We stay connected with our talent after they start, making sure they have the support they need, that expectations are clear, and that the placement is working for both the candidate and our client.”

I have been looking for work after being laid off. However, I have had the pleasure of talking to Amber out of the Monroe, Michigan office. She’s very persistent in getting you back to work. Not to mention, a very understanding voice that will definitely give individual confidence in their endeavors of seeking a career opportunity! Kudos to you Amber @ Advance in Monroe, Michigan 😉👍

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is it like to partner with a temporary staffing and recruiting agency?

Is employment staffing too expensive?

A staffing partnership often reduces your overall hiring costs. It saves time and cuts many of the expenses tied to recruiting, screening, onboarding, and compliance, all without expanding your internal HR team.

We evaluate every candidate’s experience, skills, and goals before we recommend them. We only bring you candidates who meet your requirements.
Many roles fill quickly because we maintain an active network of pre-screened candidates. Timelines vary by role and market conditions, but our goal is always to move fast without sacrificing quality.
We’re WBENC-certified, our entire team holds Certified Staffing Professional credentials, and we maintain a 4.7-star average across 460+ Google reviews. We also have a 9.2/10 rating from NPS. We’re glad to share references and success stories that back it up.
