Employers FAQs

WHY WOULD MY COMPANY USE CONTRACTORS FOUND BY WORK/LIFE RECRUITING?

There are 3 main reasons.
(1) Contracting reduces employment costs by allowing you to only pay for the skill set you need, with very little training or ramp-up time.
(2) Contracting offers staffing flexibility to complete projects and meet deadlines. The option for a contract-to-direct conversion can allow your company to “try” the candidate before “buying” as a direct hire.
(3) Contracting eliminates the risk tied to workers’ compensation, unemployment, benefits, and the normal exposure related to having traditional employees.

CAN WORK/LIFE RECRUITING IMPACT OUR HIRING?

In today’s candidate-driven market, working with a recruiting partner can be your greatest asset in tracking down top talent and getting ahead of your competitors.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT ONCE I’M AN APPROVED CLIENT?

We start by defining the open position’s responsibilities and your expectations. Using this information, we’ll work with you to create a job description that engages top talent and interview questions that separate the best from the rest. The more clearly we understand what you want and need, the faster we can deliver qualified candidates for you to consider.
Once we understand your needs, we leverage our vast network of job seekers and use our suite of tools to attract high-quality talent to your open role. During this outreach period, you can expect weekly updates on our progress. From an initial engagement message to arranging a final interview, we handle all of the communication and pre-screening interviews.
As an outcome of our thorough vetting process, you’ll receive informational packets on each candidate. Employers use these packets to reliably compare candidates against one another, truly identifying a perfect fit.
