Staffing agencies are typically for contract positions and often temporary ones. They also typically handle the  entire employment process, including payroll, benefits, and compliance for the temporary staff they place. The workers are usually employees of the staffing agency, not the client company. A recruiting firm can recruit for positions of all levels and does not do temporary staffing. Our recruiters have clients across the country and focus on hiring the right culture fit and applicants with the skills to do the job well.

When you're looking for dependable recruiters, you want a business that has a positive reputation in the community. You also want a team with experience. When picking your recruiting firm, keep these three tips in mind.

- It's helpful to choose a recruiting firm that specializes in the industry and positions you need to fill but it is not necessary if the recruiting firm has a solid, tried and true process to hire exactly who you need.

- Check the affordability and value the recruiting firm brings to you. Like anything, pricing and value vary. 

- As with any organization you are seeking to do business with, check their online presence and reviews.

A niche recruiting firm is one that specializes not only in specific industries and positions but also in certain sized organizion (smaller vs. corporate organizations for example). Our niche recruiters can help you find the perfect fit for your position, no matter your industry.

The price of your services depends on a few factors. - What level of a position are you seeking to fill? Are you seeking a proverbial "unicorn"? How competitive is your compensation package - so that you can attract top talent rather expeditiously. 

Traditional recruiting firms typically charge a percentage of the annual salary for the position you are seeking to fill. This can be from 10% up to 30% on average. 

At Qualified Applicants, our firm charges a small fraction of this and brings more value to our clients, who are often locally owned and operated, like us. Get in contact with our experienced recruiters headquartered in Atlanta, GA to see the Qualified Applicants' difference for yourself.

There are hundreds of platforms out there. You can leverage software that allows you to place ads on many platforms at once or hire a recruiting firm to do the heavy lifting and simply deliver the best quality applicants right to you. If you're looking to take the hassle out of finding the perfect applicants for your position, turn to our helpful recruiters at Qualified Applicants.

This depends on the position, compensation, and more. Our average time is about 30-60 days. However, some positions fill in a couple of days to a few weeks. Usually, the lower-level positions and ones that don't require special training, education, or a license will fill the fastest. To learn more about our process, give Qualified Applicants a call today.

Fractional recruiters are like any other fractional position, such as a Fractional CMO or Fractional CFO. They are entrenched in the culture, needs, and goals of the organization in a more granular way. They are ideal if you need to hire various people over longer periods of time. Give our recruiters at Qualified Applicants a call today to learn more.

Many small to mid-sized companies don't know what a recruiting firm should be asking about their organization to expeditiously and accurately find the right person. There are four questions (minimum) they must ask to be effective:

- Do you have a job description?

- Tell me about your culture and who would be a great fit for it.

- Who is the manager and what is that person’s management style?

- Finally, what are the KPIs or ways in which this person will be measured on performance, and in what time frame?

These are the very basic questions, and there should be more. If a recruiter misses any of these, they are likely not going to be able to do a great job for you. You can count on our the team at Qualified Applicants to ask all these key questions and more when matching applicants and positions.

Typically, no. Commonly, people leave a job for three major reasons that have nothing to do with recruiters:

1. The job was not what they were told it was going to be when they were hired. The recruiter will explain what the job entails and the expected goals and timelines. If this changes, that is not the recruiter’s fault.
2. Many times there is no Onboarding Program in place by which to welcome, prepare and communicate with a new hire what is expected. As a result they, feel lost and as if they made a mistake accepting the position. Many of these people will quit within the first month. 
3. People also leave because of issues with their managers such as  communication challenges. Again, this is not the fault of the recruiter.
