Questions About New Hires:
We have a wide diversity of backgrounds among our job seeking customers. We have people from entry-level positions to CEOs and CFOs. We have a wide range of academic and professional training among our customers too. Chances are, we have someone whose profile - experience, training, education, skills, work experience - fits your needs. Our job-seeking customers have had an array of services provided through our One Stops to help prepare them for and assist them in their job search. Based upon the particular needs of each job-seeker, customers might have received job search assistance, employment and career counseling, computer training and testing services. Many have benefited from a variety of informational seminars and workshops. In short, before they work for you they have worked with us. Go To Top Our customer base is broad. We have adults who are seeking to enter or re-enter the workforce after a long absence. We have people who have been dislocated from their jobs because of downsizing and business closures. We have people who are looking to up-grade themselves, find a new position perhaps in a field for which they were trained, and we have people who are interested in what other appropriate opportunities there might be out there for them. First you will be getting a candidate who has been screened and referred to you based upon your requirements for the position and their experience and skills. You are also going to be referred people who want to work for you and who understand the requirements of being a member of today's workforce. We can help you recruit and find the right person for that one job you have or we can help you find a number of appropriate individuals to satisfy your need. In all cases, we refer well-qualified candidates for your consideration. You alone decide on who you choose to hire. Go To Top Depending upon the skills required to do the job you need done, the current skills level possessed by our job-seeking customer, your willingness to train our job seeker in those areas where skills enhancement is required and your willingness to offer a starting wage of at least $9.00/Hr., you may qualify for on- the-job training assistance for your new employee. With a length that depends upon how much actual training the new employee needs (with a maximum length not to exceed six (6) months), we can through a simple on-the-job training contract with you reimburse you 50% of our job-seeking customer's gross salary for the agreed-upon training period. Go To Top To learn more about how we can partner with you to provide up-grade training for you workforce, please call the Business Services Department at (716) 819-9845. |
