Dear Omar,

Hiring a new employee is a time consuming yet vitally important process. When you’re a busy company and an open position within it, the job of finding a new employee can be very difficult. The time we could save by using a hiring agency could be spent more efficiently to get our jobs done. Using a hiring agency has other advantages besides saving time, such as; expertise, cost, and access to the best.

A hiring agency is a service that matches the needs of our company with individuals who have the skill sets to meet those needs. Essentially, hiring agencies with perform the recruitment and selection process for our organization.

Benefits

By utilizing a hiring agency, we can relieve a lot of pressure. The agency can provide a permanent or a short term temporary employee. They will recruit a great worker without any of the hassle and costs of advertising or hiring. Plus, the agency takes care of the payroll, including his/her paycheques, benefits, insurance, etc..

Additional Benefits:

* Satisfaction guaranteed and risk free; able to send employee back if we are dissatisfied with current his/her performance, charge free

* Thorough background checks; tests, interviews, reference checks, etc.

* Save costs of hiring, payroll, turnover, etc.

Most agencies charge a piece of the employee’s salary. Generally 20%-30% is pretty common. This may seem high, but in the long run it is cheaper than the alternative, doing our own hiring. I have spoken with a friend, who is a professional in Human Resources, and she highly recommends it. I have attached a list of reputable agencies and articles of other companies’ testimonials.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you would like any additional information, I’d be happy to assist you.
