Finding a company that can place you in the right labour job requires a lot more than a simple Google search and application. If you want to find a staffing agency that works with you and for you to give you the best job opportunities available, you MUST do your research properly.
Here are 3 things to keep in mind when selecting a staffing agency:
Many people mistakenly believe that it’s not so important to know the core values of a staffing agency that sends you out to work with other companies, but that’s not true. Understanding the agency’s philosophy and work culture is an important part of your decision.
Why Choose Matrix
While some temp agencies are built on the idea of transient staff, our team at Matrix is focused on building long term relationships. Not only do we ensure accurate labour placement, but we also boast high retention and low attrition rates.
Regardless of season changes and economic fluctuations, we have developed a structure that ensures consistent employment as well as countless opportunities for career development.
A greater number of staffing agencies today offer traditional employment perks, including direct deposit, paid vacation days, and healthcare. At Matrix, 84% of our costs are attributed to benefits and wages.
While some people may not care about anything except who pays the best, when choosing a staffing agency, it might be worth making a little less on each job as a tradeoff for other important benefits.
One of the biggest challenges as a job seeker today is that you have a lot of competition, which means that the demand for expertise, advanced knowledge, and soft skills is very high. To be able to stand out in today’s job market, you must be continually learning and growing.
That’s why when selecting a temp agency to help place you in the best jobs, you must make sure that they offer training courses or other opportunities for you to enhance your skillset.
