From specialists to team leads, we cover the hospitality and retail roles San Francisco employers need:
New luxury hotel in Transbay District will hire staff for rooms, dining, and events.
source ↗Major waterfront convention and event venue opening in 2026 will create demand for hospitality workers.
source ↗Transformed former Embassy Suites into Hilton Curio Collection resort will hire hospitality retail staff.
source ↗With temp and contract staffing, Scout Finders employs the worker (payroll, taxes, workers' comp) and assigns them to you — flexible and fast to scale. With direct-hire, we recruit and vet candidates but your business employs them permanently; there's no co-employment, and you pay a placement fee only when you hire.
Every candidate goes through skills assessment, reference checks and I-9/E-Verify work-authorization verification, plus role-specific background checks, drug screening or license/credential verification where the position requires it. Licensed roles are checked against the primary-source issuer (state board, bar, etc.).
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.
It starts with your requirements — role, skills, start date. We assign a vetted worker, pay and insure them as the employer of record, and you manage their day-to-day work. No long-term commitment, and temp-to-hire conversion is always on the table.
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.
