Questions, answered
What does a staffing agency cost?

For temp and contract staffing you pay a bill rate that bundles the worker's pay plus a markup covering payroll taxes, workers' compensation, unemployment insurance and our service. For direct-hire, you pay a one-time placement fee (typically a percentage of first-year salary) only when you hire — no hire, no fee.

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.

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.

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

Kentucky 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. 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).
