Turn the corner on staffing challenges by making sure you choose the best Maritime recruiting firm. The best agencies will run a tight ship with processes and strategies that signal smooth sailing ahead. Here are four things to consider when selecting your staffing agency.

Staffing Challenges? Stem The Tide!

When you are looking to build a reliable and effective Maritime Construction workforce, partnering with a staffing agency can make a difference to the quality and the time-to-fill of your hires. But to optimize your partnership, consider a company that offers more. 

They Build Relationships, Not Client Lists
The most competent and successful recruiting agencies will focus on fostering an understanding of their client’s organization. They will strive to understand your operations, your obstacles, the culture of your workplace, your goals and objectives. This allows them to build a completely customized approach to developing your workforce and addressing your staffing needs now and in the future.

They Have A Robust Network
The staffing agency you choose should have a reliable and proven network of industry partners and a vast database of talent resources. If your recruiting partner is focused on creating alliances with industry professional associations, schools, and training/ certification organizations, they will have access to emerging workers and senior-level employees. The top recruiting agencies will have carefully cultivated a network of the most outstanding, the most skilled, the most committed candidates to bring on board.

They Have Proven Screening Processes
Finding talent is just one step in building a sustainable workforce. Your recruiting agency should have effective methodologies for assessing each candidate, not just for a great resume, but for reputable training, verifiable experience, and measurable talent. An excellent staffing company will also screen each candidate for the soft skills necessary to integrate seamlessly into your organization and fit within your workplace culture.

They Add Value
When making the decision to outsource your hiring to an agency, there needs to be a value-add. Skilled worker shortages, intense competition, pandemics, and supply chain challenges can all impact the profitability of a project. It only makes sense to partner with a recruiting firm if it can benefit your bottom line. When a staffing agency offers customized and streamlined solutions and offers flexible strategies to work within your organization, they can reduce your cost-per-hire, minimize interruptions to your productivity and workflow, and scale to meet your needs throughout a project lifecycle. Partnering with a reputable and experienced recruiting agency will actually save you money.
