Hiring a recruiting company like Commission Group Staffing (CG Staffing) can be beneficial as we have expertise in finding and attracting qualified candidates. Some factors to consider when choosing a recruiting company include industry expertise, reputation, success rate, and cost. It’s important to have a clear understanding of your hiring needs and communicate them effectively to the recruiting company in order to ensure a successful partnership.

Recruiting companies have access to a large pool of candidates and can source quickly

Sourcing candidates to fill vacancies is a full-time occupation that is time consuming when done right. Often times employers have to juggle multiple roles within their organization and lack the time and capacity to effectively screen candidates. Recruiters are a great resource to save businesses time, energy, and money because when a good recruiter takes the time to properly vet candidates your company will have better luck retaining new hires.

Recruiters can provide expertise in screening and evaluating candidates, saving time in the hiring process.

Finding the ‘right fit’ takes specialized knowledge that requires mental and behavior analysis. A candidate’s resume may be appealing but in actuality the role may need someone with abilities such as a pleasing personality and optimistic thinking that the candidate may not have as a skill. If the Candidate has a strong resume but lacks personality traits that’s best for your companies culture… you will have a problem. Commission Group’s Master Connectors take all aspects of hiring the right person into consideration while interviewing. We focus on skills, background, personality, and behaviors that will best match your companies culture, this way you will have your choice at the very best candidates.

CG Staffing can negotiate salary and benefits on behalf of the employer.

Our Master Connectors have our clients best interest in mind while we screen candidates. We focus on finding exactly what employers need including negotiating salaries, terms, and conditions that you request.

Salary negotiations can be hard to discuss, and that is why our Master Connectors can have that hard conversation for you. If candidates feel un-easy about the proposed salary they get offered, our experts are trained to create a safe environment to talk through the difficult topic.

We offer additional services such as background checks and skills assessments.

High-level positions like executive and C-suite roles require more screening than lower level positions; therefore CG Staffing is prepared to go the extra mile. Some industries will need a ‘Industry Specific background check’ that we will perform i.e. Real Estate agents, doctors, and lawyers etc. On the other hand CG Staffing can also conduct credit checks, professional, and personal background checks as well as conduct a psychoanalysis as an option. Our Master Connectors send you reports and consult you through the process to gain clarity for exactly what your company wants from each candidate.

Working with a recruiting company can be expensive, as they typically charge a fee based on a percentage of the candidate’s salary.

The cost associated with hiring a recruiting company can push businesses away because some recruiters charge far more than they provide service. CG Staffing have a strong standard in providing more in service than we get paid for. Doing more than we are paid to do is our principle of success and the reason why our clients stay with us. CG Staffing believes in going the extra mile for our clients to ensure a positive experience for both parties.

Our fees vary depending on factors such as the type of job being filled, the level of the position, and the location. However, it’s common for these fees to range from 10% to 25% of the candidate’s first-year salary.

Our recruiters assess the needs of our clients and prepare a customized strategy. Some companies need more of our services than others and our fees are structured according to the needs of our clients.

Employers may have less control over the hiring process, as the recruiting company takes on much of the responsibility.

Communication is key to keep everyone on the same page. CG Staffing initiates all business with the understanding that we will be in constant communication to be sure that our clients have clarity on the hiring process. When you are not satisfied with candidates it makes this process more difficult for everyone; therefore we ask that you as the client be willing to discuss all details to help us help you find the perfect match.

There may be a lack of transparency in the hiring process, as the employer may not have direct access to all candidate information.

Lack of transparency happens when the lines of communication diminish. In the agreement that you signed it states the terms for confidentially that we will never breech. It is our pleasure to provide you all the information you need so that you can have confidence in the hiring process. If for any reason you as the client have issues with transparency you will have access to supervisors that will resolve the issue and potentially reassign a better fitting recruiter.

There is a risk of receiving a high volume of unqualified candidates, which can create more work for the employer.

As stated above in this article. CG Staffing have our clients best interest in mind through every step of the way because when you win we also have victory. We are focused on supporting our clients and candidate to success even if it means being totally honest in the event we can not find the right candidate. We will always be transparent and willing to refund your retainer if we have trouble providing qualified candidates.

Our reputation is at stake and we take joy in being honest with you.
