Our Hiring Choices
As a full service company, First Call offers a number of hiring options to accommodate your needs.
Temporary
Our team of professionals will find you a candidate who can stay as few as 4 hours or be there indefinitely. First Call takes care of the payroll, the taxes and assumes full responsibility for all employee liabilities. The billrate is established when you call us with the details and you are billed for only the hours actually worked.
Temp to Hire
Our temp to Hire program is based upon an accumulated 600 hour assignment. Once our employee has met this requirement, he/she may join your staff at no additional fee. Should you decide you would like to hire our employee before the 600 hours have been fulfilled, we are happy to offer early conversions.
If within the 600 hours our employee does not meet your expectations the position will be refilled with an employee who will "inherit" the original accrued hours. Temp to Hire placements that are less than 40 hours per week will be reviewed on an individual basis.
