Questions, answered
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.

How fast can you fill a role?

Common roles move fast — often within a day or two from our pre-screened bench. Niche or credentialed positions (licensed clinicians, engineers, executives) run a few days to a couple of weeks while we verify and interview.

What does a staffing agency do?

Think of a staffing agency as your outsourced recruiting and HR-admin arm: we find qualified people, run the screening, and for temp staff we put them on our payroll as the employer of record so you skip the paperwork and the liability.

How does temp staffing work?

You tell us the role, skills and start date; we draw from a vetted bench and place a worker on assignment. As the employer of record we handle payroll, taxes, workers' compensation and I-9/E-Verify, and you direct the work day-to-day. You can convert strong temps to permanent at any point.

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

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). 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).
