Working with a Staffing Firm Can Reduce Cost and Boost Organizational Effectiveness
Staffing firms do much more than simply provide associates for job openings. While this is an important service, there are many other benefits to working with a staffing firm like Seifert Associates, Inc. In many cases, our clients choose to outsource some or all of their human resource functions with us, rather than maintaining their own human resource department. Small business, in particular, can benefit from using our services on an as-needed basis, freeing you up to focus on serving your customers and growing your business. Some of the services we offer:

  • Payroll
  • Accounting
  • Taxes
  • Benefit Plan Administration
  • Group Health Plan Administration
  • Background Checks
  • Drug Screening
  • Workers' Compensation
  • Recruiting

We also help our clients find the best possible employees by looking deeper than a candidate’s resume and interview. At Seifert Associates, we specialize in finding technical talent. We’ve developed a thorough technical testing process to ensure that you are getting a candidate with the skills you need. Also, we offer Temporary to Permanent placement service. This allows an employer to work with the new hire for a trial period to ensure the person is the right fit. During this trial period, Seifert Associates acts as the associate’s employer, giving you the time you need to assess the person’s skills and work habits before making a long term commitment.
