FAQ FOR CANDIDATES
Working Through a Staffing Agency
What are the benefits of working through a staffing agency?
You’re not alone. Looking for work is a full-time job in itself. Instead of spending hours job hunting alone, when you work with a staffing agency the opportunities come to you! BestLogic Staffing has a large network of clients hiring for a variety of positions and our recruiters work hard to match you with a job that fits your skillset, earning needs, and schedule.

We know the job market and we have the connections. Placing great people into great jobs is our mission, and it's been a life-changing one for our candidates.
Bridge to permanent employment. Working with a staffing agency can be a bridge to permanent employment, and the potential for securing a permanent position is a major reason people seek temporary work.
Flexibility. Temporary employment allows you to work when and where you choose. You can work full-time or part-time, take a summer off, work just three or four days a week, and benefit from a variety of other options. You can even fit your work hours around another job or a class schedule. Working for a staffing firm also allows you to experience a variety of industries, companies, and careers you might never have thought of trying—without a long-term commitment.
What type of work does BestLogic Staffing offer?
We provide a variety of employment arrangements, including temporary/contract work, temp-to-hire opportunities, and even direct hire positions.
Light Industrial: These are typically temporary and temp-to-hire positions. Most are entry-level positions (e.g., packaging, assembly) and can either be long-term or day-to-day assignments. Skilled production jobs (e.g., machine operator, material handler) are usually temp-to-hire positions with a regular, full-time schedule.
Office or Administrative: These employment options can range from temporary or temp-to-hire, to contract, and direct hire positions. Office or administrative jobs may include: clerical assistant, customer service representative, call center representative, accounting/finance assistant, data entry specialist, office manager, general office support, and more.

Contract Work
Why should I consider contract work?
Contract work can provide a bridge to regular, full-time employment. You can use it as an opportunity to try out a prospective employer/workplace and demonstrate your skills for the job.
For individuals who are looking to supplement their income or have a variety of working schedules in their life, temporary or contract work is a great solution.
Contract work can provide a flexible work schedule that helps you better manage a healthy work-life balance.
What kind of flexibility does a staffing job offer me?
Staffing employees can often choose when, where, and how they want to work—all contributing to valuable work-life balance. In fact, 85% of staffing employees surveyed by the American Staffing Association in 2014 said work flexibility was highly important, and a top reason for pursuing temporary or contract work.
