Questions, answered
How fast can you fill a role?

Most volume and light-industrial requests are filled inside 48 hours. The more specialized or regulated the role, the more screening it needs, so plan on several days to two weeks for those.

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

Temp and contract roles are short-term and agency-employed (ideal for seasonal peaks or projects); direct-hire is a permanent role you own from day one. We support both, plus temp-to-hire as the middle path.

How does temp staffing work?

We take your brief, match a pre-screened candidate and put them to work on your timeline. Scout Finders runs payroll, taxes and workers' comp as the W-2 employer; you supervise the assignment and can hire the worker permanently whenever you're ready.

Do you need a license to run a staffing agency in California?

For direct-hire and permanent placements, Scout Finders recruits and vets only — your business employs the candidate, so there is no co-employment and no license claim. We lead with ASA membership and structured candidate vetting (skills, references, work authorization). California has no staffing-agency licensing scheme. As the W-2 employer of record for temp and contract staff, Scout Finders operates under federal labor law (co-employment, ACA, EEOC, I-9/E-Verify); we carry workers' compensation.
