What are the pros and cons of using temporary services to find employees?
The main pro of hiring employees through temp agencies is that you’ll get to see how that employee works, without having to hire them first. If they’re good employees, you can then pay the staffing agency’s separation fee of 15 to 25 percent based on the temp’s length of service and hourly rate. The cons are that it might be more expensive to hire a temporary worker than it would be to hire an employee, since you can probably hire an employee for less money per hour than you’re paying the staffing agency.
