Questions, answered
How fast can you fill a role?

For common temp and light-industrial roles we can place vetted workers within 24-48 hours from a ready bench. Skilled, licensed or direct-hire roles typically take a few days to a couple of weeks depending on credentials and screening required.

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 do you vet candidates?

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.

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 North Carolina?

In North Carolina, 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).
