Advantages of a Temp-to-Hire Program
If you’re here, you probably already know that working with a staffing company can save you time, money, and stress, but do you know which type of program is right for you? If not, here’s a couple reasons you might want to choose a temp-to-hire program:
Job Performance
One advantage is that you get to see how a candidate will perform on the job before making a permanent hiring decision. Candidates may seem like great fits on paper and in interviews, but you don’t truly know how they’ll perform until they’re actually on the job. With temp-to-hire, you can see how well they perform first.
Candidate Fit
Another advantage is that candidates also get the same kind of opportunity that employers do. Candidates can try a job before making a more permanent commitment. According to this article from Inc., “up to 28 percent of new employees quit within the first 90 days on the job.” Employers and candidates alike don’t know how well candidates will fit into positions until they’re actually working, so temp-to-hire allows employees to change their minds without causing a huge burden on the employers.
Overall, temp-to-hire programs will help mitigate hiring risk as both candidates and employers get to test a hiring situation before making a more permanent, costly decision.
