Larry Kidd, President & CEO:hire, a pioneer in talent solutions, excels in delivering exceptional candidates that seamlessly blend with the fabric of company culture while exceeding expectations in their designated positions. Its adaptable staffing alternatives encompass temporary, temp-to-hire arrangements, and direct placement options.
Leveraging extensive expertise in warehouse and logistics, manufacturing, finance, and the medical sector, :hire demonstrates a profound understanding of the specific needs within various industries. This enables it to provide customized solutions that effectively address client’s diverse requirements.
“We are more than mere people pushers, as we are skilled problem solvers. We assess our clients’ situations and provide solutions that optimize their employment prospects while minimizing costs,” says Larry Kidd, President and CEO of :hire.
When a client approaches :hire for their talent acquisition needs, it initially gains a comprehensive understanding of their organizational culture and the individuals who comprise it. This involves physically visiting the client’s location, whether it is a factory or a financial institution, to ascertain the ideal cultural fit. Ensuring alignment facilitates a seamless transition of temporary associates into permanent roles.
:hire then conducts searches on multiple job boards and leverages its extensive platform, comprising a substantial pool of potential candidates. Once suitable candidates are identified, the firm schedules interviews or directly hires individuals depending on the client’s preferences.
After successfully placing a candidate, :hire provides continuous support and guidance through regular follow-ups. This involves addressing their concerns or frustrations, like insufficient communication with their manager to prevent unforeseen departures. It keeps the client well-informed by providing regular feedback during this process. If a termination is initiated by the employee or the employer, the firm conducts exit interviews and provides feedback to the client.
As the employer of record, :hire assumes important administrative tasks like workers’ compensation, unemployment, and health insurance. It also manages payroll for candidates, issuing their paychecks. To bring employees together, it organizes periodic gatherings that serve as opportunities to debrief, share industry insights, and collect feedback from participants. By staying informed about industry trends and challenges, it proactively collaborates with clients to improve their status as employers and enhance their services.
I am so pleased to play a small role in the staffing industry. Nothing is more fulfulling than helping someone find that “life-changing” job
One remarkable example that showcases :hire’s service excellence is when a client struggled to effectively manage numerous staffing vendors in their location. :hire, acting as a Master Service Provider (MSP), implemented a streamlined approach. All job orders were directed through :hire, which selectively delegated orders to individual vendors when necessary. This centralized vendor management process allowed the client to focus on their core business while avoiding the complexities of coordinating with multiple providers. Monthly meetings were established between :hire and the client to maintain effective communication and collaboration. These meetings served as an opportunity to exchange feedback, review performance metrics, and discuss areas for improvement. The newly implemented MSP model proved to be highly successful, earning the client’s praise and satisfaction.
While technology plays a crucial role in accelerating processes, hire firmly believes in the value of interpersonal interactions. Being in the people business, it aims to continue meeting clients’ talent acquisition needs with a personal touch.
