Typical skilled labor and warehouse roles we staff for Chicago clients include:
Operates in partnership with Amazon to store data center equipment, requiring warehouse staff for logistics.
source ↗New 123,000 sq ft rear-load warehouse near O'Hare will need dock workers and logistics staff.
source ↗149,100 sq ft industrial facility in Bartlett requires warehouse workers for distribution operations.
source ↗Temp staffing means we supply the worker and carry the employment overhead. You describe the need, we place someone fast, we handle the wages, withholding, workers' comp and work-authorization checks, and you simply direct the job.
In a co-employment relationship the agency is the administrative employer (pay, benefits, compliance) and the client is the worksite employer (supervision, safety). Clear contracts allocate who's responsible for what.
Pricing follows the model: temp/contract is an all-in hourly bill rate (pay + taxes + insurance + service), and direct-hire is a one-time fee, usually a share of first-year salary, charged only when you actually hire the candidate.
Yes, and it's common. Start someone as a Scout Finders temp, see how they perform on real work, then move them onto your payroll when you're ready — a try-before-you-buy path to a permanent hire.
