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

Temp staffing = Scout Finders is the employer of record and you get flexible, on-demand workers. Direct-hire = we find and screen the candidate, you put them on your own payroll permanently. Many clients start temp-to-hire to try before they commit.

Can temporary workers become permanent?

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.

What is co-employment?

It's how staffing works legally — two employers, split duties. Scout Finders hires, pays, insures and verifies the worker; you manage their tasks on site. Using a careful, compliant agency keeps that shared liability low.

What does a staffing agency cost?

Temp staffing is billed as an hourly rate that includes wages, employer taxes and workers' comp, so there are no surprise costs. Direct-hire is a contingency placement fee owed only on a successful hire.

Do you need a license to run a staffing agency in New York?

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). In New York, employment-agency licensing applies to fee-charging placement; Scout Finders supplies temp and contract staff as the W-2 employer of record (co-employment, we carry workers' compensation, I-9/E-Verify). Fee-placement license on file where required (registration number provided on engagement).
