Questions, answered
What does a staffing agency cost?

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.

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.

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.

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