Last-minute coverage requirements, assistance with short- and long-term projects, holiday shortages

and interim demands for specific expertise are a given. Heartland Staffing Solutions offers a flexible

approach to managing all types staff levels. We help the client match workforce to workload, decreasing

overhead costs while still having access to talent when needed. (This enable you to enjoy the flexibility

to staff up when needed, without increasing your permanent headcount 

Temp-to-Hire positions are a hybrid between contract temporary and direct hire roles. The candidate starts on Heartland Staffing Solution's payroll. After a predetermined number of hours, usually 480 or roughly 90 calendar days, the candidadte converts onto your payroll. Until we’ve reached the predetermined hours, you’re billed an hourly rate once a week that reflects the candidate pay rate and our fees.
 

 Direct Hire roles typically have the widest pool of candidates because passive candidates who are ready to move for the right opportunity can be recruited. These candidates start on your payroll, as your employee, from day one. Upon hire, you’ll be billed a percentage of the candidate’s annual salary. 

 With Payroll Services, a company can expand their talent base – or bring  laid-off employees back to work – without taking on the financial and administrative burden of increased full-time headcount. Heartland Staffing  is responsible for all payroll and administrative functions, including hours and recordkeeping, tax withholding, unemployment insurance, and all other payroll-related functions. 

  How do you find candidates?

We take a multi-pronged approach to sourcing and recruiting that involves online postings, Boolean sourcing, a deep referral network (in some industries, almost half of our placed candidates are referrals!), active networking in the community, diverse community partnerships, and professional and industry groups. If it was easy and quick to find the right person for a role, you’d have hired them already! We spend most of our time building relationships and making connections for the benefit of our clients.

How do you vet candidates?

We meet in person or perform detailed phone and virtual interviews with every single candidate we introduce to you. This process usually includes an interview, skills assessment, and reference checks.

We offer a variety of other employment checks upon client request, including background checks, credit checks, degree verifications, and drug screens. For these additional screens, we follow state and federal laws in both letter and spirit.

Why should I work with a recruiter?

Hiring is time-consuming and the costs of a mis-hire are significant – some studies say upwards of 150% of that employee’s salary. Like other professional services, we’re experts who can help you find and retain great employees so you can focus on your core business. We can deepen and diversify your pool of available candidates, offer market and salary insights, hone in on exactly what each party needs, coordinate the interview and pre-employment process, provide honest feedback, act as a third-party during negotiations, and provide ongoing consultations for your business needs. All of this leads to great employees, while still giving you time to focus on running your business.

Do you offer guarantees?

Absolutely! We stand by our work, seek long-term placements, and guarantee your satisfaction. We offer several industry-leading guarantee options; speak with your recruiter about the best solution for you.

What is your process and timeline?

Our process can be tailored to your needs, but generally includes in-depth conversations with you about your business and the role, interviews with vetted candidates, feedback, compensation negotiations, closing an offer with your chosen candidate, pre-employment screening, and ongoing consultations as needed.

We work on your timeline and will match your urgency. If you need a critical hire tomorrow, we will do our best to send over candidates today. We collaborate with you around your needs, availability, business timelines, etc. We will set expectations with you, but ultimately, we’re not making widgets – we’re building relationships.
