Questions, answered
What does a staffing agency do?

Think of a staffing agency as your outsourced recruiting and HR-admin arm: we find qualified people, run the screening, and for temp staff we put them on our payroll as the employer of record so you skip the paperwork and the liability.

What does a staffing agency cost?

For temporary staff you pay a markup on the hourly wage that covers payroll, taxes and workers' comp. For permanent placements you pay nothing until someone is hired, then a single placement fee.

Can temporary workers become permanent?

Temp-to-hire makes this easy: the worker starts on our payroll, you evaluate them in the actual role, and you convert them to permanent on agreed terms whenever it makes sense.

What is the difference between temp staffing and direct-hire?

The difference is who employs the worker. For temp/contract, that's us — we carry pay, taxes and workers' comp, and you flex headcount as needed. For direct-hire, that's you — we just deliver a vetted candidate for a one-time placement fee on hire.

Do you need a license to run a staffing agency?

For direct-hire and permanent placements, your business employs the candidate — no co-employment and no license claim; we lead with ASA membership and structured candidate vetting. Across the US, Scout Finders supplies temp and contract staff as the W-2 employer of record — payroll, taxes, workers' compensation and I-9/E-Verify — operating as a co-employer with your business under federal law (co-employment, ACA, EEOC). A few states (IL, NJ, MA) require staffing/temp registration, which we hold where we operate.
