Typical roles we staff for San Francisco clients include:
A major new hospital opening later this decade, creating broad hiring demand for medical, nursing, and support staff.
source ↗Creating 2,500 homes and offices on 29 acres, driving massive construction and facility staffing hiring.
source ↗Adding 1,200+ housing units and retail, requiring broad hiring for construction, property management, and retail staff.
source ↗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.
Temp and contract roles are short-term and agency-employed (ideal for seasonal peaks or projects); direct-hire is a permanent role you own from day one. We support both, plus temp-to-hire as the middle path.
Vetting is layered: capability and skills testing first, then references and E-Verify work authorization, then any role-specific checks — background, drug screen, or primary-source license verification for regulated jobs.
Staffing agencies recruit, vet and place candidates so you can scale your workforce up or down fast. On temp and contract assignments the agency employs the worker — payroll, taxes, workers' comp — while on direct-hire roles you employ them and the agency simply finds and screens the talent.
