INSIGHTS / STAFFING DECISIONS
Recruitment or temporary staffing? Start with the need.
Hiring someone into your organization and arranging cover are different decisions. The starting point is what you need the arrangement to do.
“We need someone” can mean more than one thing.
Do you need someone to join your organization, cover an assignment, or work with the team before discussing a hire? Those are different decisions—and they call for different arrangements.
Use the comparison below as a starting point. You don’t need to settle on a service before contacting us.
| What you need | Route to discuss |
|---|---|
| Hire someone into your organization | Recruitment |
| Cover a defined staffing assignment | Temporary Staffing |
| Work together before considering direct employment | Staff-to-Hire |
| Develop people already on your team or a new hire | Workforce Partnership |
Recruitment: you want to hire
The focus is finding candidates for your organization to consider employing. Anderson Blake Healthcare’s recruitment work includes sourcing, initial interviews, candidate summaries and employer-interview coordination.
You help shape the requirements and make the hiring decision. We handle the search work and keep candidate conversations moving.
If your goal is a direct hire, recruitment is the natural place to start.
Temporary staffing: you need cover
Start with the gap you need to cover: the work, location and timing. We check staff availability and work through the assignment with you.
Anderson Blake Healthcare pays the assigned staff and invoices your organization. We explain the rate, schedule and practical arrangements for the assignment.
The focus is the staffing need you have now. You can arrange temporary cover without planning a later direct hire.
Staff-to-Hire: you want to consider the working relationship
A paid staffing assignment can give your organization and the professional experience of working together before considering direct employment.
You see the day-to-day working relationship while the professional is paid for the assignment. If both sides want to continue, we can discuss the arrangements for a direct hire.
The role’s essential qualifications and capabilities remain the starting point. Staff-to-Hire adds experience of the working relationship to your hiring decision.
What if the people are already there?
If the issue is development for existing staff, another hiring arrangement may not be the relevant answer. Workforce Partnership is the separate route for agreed development support, quarterly reviews and upskilling.
You don’t have to purchase recruitment or staffing to discuss support for the team you already have.
