Before working with our recruiting team, you may have some questions about direct placement and how it works.
What Are Direct Hire Solutions?
Direct hire solutions are a way to place full-time employees at a company using a faster recruiting and hiring process and more exact talent. Direct hire, also called direct placement, usually involves using a recruitment agency or staffing firm to help companies garner an employee using an expedited process.
Direct Hire vs. Traditional Hiring
The major difference between direct hire and traditional hiring is who is doing the searching. While traditional job hiring is done by the hiring manager at a company, direct hiring is done by a recruiting or staffing agency to expedite the process. Instead of your company handling the recruiting process internally, Strom Minnesota takes the work off your hands and uses our industry experience to make it easier.
Direct Hiring at Strom Minnesota
At Strom Minnesota, our professional recruiters are well-versed in the engineering industry and finding candidates who match those requirements. After speaking with you to determine your hiring goals, we scour our database to find applicable candidates or, if they’re not already there, we network and reach out to potential options. Once a few candidates are chosen, we conduct thorough screenings and assessments before presenting you with the most qualified matches. We then coordinate interviews, facilitate feedback and help manage the offer process to ensure a smooth hiring experience.
Strom has reliably provided me with staffing services for many years for a wide range of engineering design services. I look forward to working with Strom to assist with temporary staffing needs in the future.
Advantages of Direct Hire Employees Through Strom Minnesota
Using a direct-hire staffing agency like Strom Minnesota ensures that the burden of finding new full-time employees for your company is taken off your hands. Let’s face it. Hiring for new jobs is no easy task. It can take forever, a huge percentage of the candidates are unqualified and the overall process takes a lot of time and effort. However, by using a recruitment agency like Strom Minnesota, you simply share your hiring goals with us, and we’ll do all the heavy lifting to match you with a qualified pool of candidates.
Expert Industry Recruiters
One of the greatest benefits of using Strom Minnesota is that we specially select candidates in your field with deep industry knowledge to guarantee that you get the best fit for your job opening. We sift through our wide list of manufacturing, engineering and technical job candidates to find a great match. Our extensive experience in the industry also ensures that we understand your company, your job posting, and your candidates better than any other recruiter. If you are specifically looking for help placing direct-hire job postings in engineering-based industries, we thoroughly understand your requirements, evaluate candidates appropriately and speed up the hiring process.
Access to Skilled Candidates
Just like an expert employee in their field, Strom Minnesota is also an expert in our field. We strive to find great engineering, assembly and technical candidates for niche roles within your company. We offer years of experience, expert networking and high credibility that all go into helping you find the perfect job candidate for your company.
With years of staffing experience under our belt and the best recruiters in the engineering and technical business, we have direct access to skilled candidates in all of your specific industries. Plus, with years of hands-on experience, we know the ins and outs of the industry to better help you find what you need rather than what other generic staffing companies offer. Not only can we access active job searchers, but we also have a surplus of working professionals to choose from. With this widened search, it makes it easier to find your company job prospects that match your needs for the role.
Get Higher Quality Candidates in Less Time
If you’ve ever tried to handle hiring on your own, it’s a tiresome endeavor that doesn’t promise the outcome you want. After working on hiring for weeks, if not months, you may finally find the perfect candidate only for them to take another job offer, perhaps they join your company only to decide it’s not a great fit or maybe they don’t have the advanced skills you thought they did. Hiring for an open position is extremely time-consuming, so leaving it to the experts is a great option for removing stress off your shoulders.
At Strom Minnesota, our recruiters handle every aspect of the hiring process — from the job posting to the initial screening to sending qualified candidates your way and handling the small details. We hand-select the best candidates who will not only match your company culture and values but also ensure you are getting the most qualified employees who meet your requirements for the position.
Increase Retention Rates
A frequent holdup in hiring is retention rates. Occasionally, you might find someone who is the wrong fit for your company, or certain positions simply don’t draw the expertise you’re looking for. The best solution to this is to hire the best fit for the position rather than just anyone. During the hiring process, it becomes easy to give up and choose someone who’s not quite right for the job because you need someone ASAP.
By using recruiters at Strom Minnesota for direct placement and direct hire, the quality of candidates we’re bringing in is significantly better than random job applicants you might find online. Since we keep both the employer and potential employees in mind during our search, it ensures that we’re sending better candidates your way — people who match the job application and your company values. With better candidates, there’s a higher likelihood they will fit in at your company and your retention rate will skyrocket.
Personalized Hiring Plan
Instead of using a one-size-fits-all recruitment strategy, Strom Minnesota personalizes each hiring plan and process accordingly. We adjust the time and recruiting game plan depending on your company’s needs to ensure your goals are always being met. Every step of the way, we communicate with your company thoroughly to discern your goals and meet them as we go about our hiring process. Our tailored approach ensures we find candidates who fit your needs, match your specific industry and are a good fit to your company culture.
How Strom Minnesota Places Direct Placement and Direct Hire Jobs
Are you running into the frustration of a limited pool of qualified applicants? Strom Minnesota’s database of highly-skilled job seekers allows us to match talent with their perfect fit job. We source the highest-skilled individuals and pre-screen them before facilitating job interviews.
Finding qualified candidates for direct hire positions is often challenging when the level of the position is beyond entry-level, or the job requires highly technical knowledge. With the level of expertise needed for niche industrial and engineering positions, you may need to also reach qualified talent who may be currently working or are not currently seeking new jobs. Strom Minnesota’s database allows us to target both passive and active job seekers, to provide you more choices.
Our process begins with a short interview to identify your hiring needs and develop a list of customized objectives. We then partner with you to overcome hiring challenges, cut through the search process, and deliver a short list of highly qualified candidates. Whether you seek short-term help or permanent support, the choice is yours. Strom stands behind their performance, and we want your complete satisfaction. We are non-retainer based and are flexible in payments/fee arrangements (typically there is a one-time fee for recruiting).
