Employers

the path to your next great hire

Whether it’s an “employer’s market” or a “candidate market”, we hear from our client companies that it is always challenging to recruit and hire the RIGHT talent. Some candidates end up receiving multiple job offers to choose from, others accept your job offer but never end up starting, and others start but leave soon after when a better offer surfaces.

And, since COVID introduced the widespread workplace concepts of remote and hybrid work, employers are now competing for talent based on these flexibility offerings that weren’t previously a consideration for candidates.

The Challenge:  With national, state, and local unemployment figures under 4%, companies in all sectors are struggling to find qualified employees.

The Solution:  J. Kent Staffing
