Businesses today must diversify recruitment efforts to meet their
future labor needs. Utilizing an employment company is one approach.
This involves shopping around just as you would for any
service.
§
Find out how the
service will support you and handle any problems that come up during
the training period and after.
Ask for specific examples.
§
Ask
for references and make calls to those on the list.
Don’t hesitate to ask what they liked and didn’t like
about the service.
§
Clarify
the responsibilities of the employment service and your company.
§
Determine
if there are any fees involved.
If there are, be sure they are clearly explained. [most CNYPC
agencies have no fees.]
§
Look
for staff that are willing to learn about your company or companies
of your type, and also know the local business community.
§
Be
sure the employment service offers support in analyzing jobs and
developing accommodations to match individuals to jobs.
§
Most
importantly, look for an agency that will help you expand our labor
pool by offering diversity: employees with a wide range of skills
and abilities.
