Finding the right employee for your job vacancy can be a complex, lengthy, and frustrating process. Using the right labour staffing agency can help bridge this gap and find you top talent and an individual that is the perfect fit for the position and your company.
However, there are several signs you should watch out for that may indicate you should use a different hiring agency. Not only can a wrong decision here cause you even more headaches, but it can also lead to wasted time and money.
Here are 5 signs you should watch out for when looking to partner with a labour placement agency:
Company culture: If your staffing agency doesn’t understand your company’s culture and values, how can you trust them to place the appropriate person to a job? Before you begin working with such a company, ensure that the staffing agency maintains communication with you and fully understands all your company’s initiatives.
Lack of industry experience: If you work with a staffing agency that has little to no industry experience, it may end up costing you. Experienced staffing agencies are able to assign competent and skilled temp workers to your job vacancies and can even help increase employee retention.
Unreliability: Trust is an important component in the relationship with your staffing agency. Without it, great results won’t be achieved. Unfortunately, many hiring agencies will find someone for you and then fail to provide ongoing support and advice. If this is important to you, then choosing an agency that you can rely on to continue delivering on their promises is a must-have.
Unclear and unreliable communication: Does your hiring agency take days to respond to an email? Do they fail at keeping you updated on the hiring process? Do they fail to provide you with the advice and support you need? Is there a lot of miscommunication? If so, you might want to reconsider your partnership.
Poor applicant screenings: This is a huge red flag and it could eventually reflect poorly on your company. If your staffing agency is failing to verify applicant references, conduct skills tests, background checks, or interviewing up to your standards, then you should strongly consider switching agencies.
