FAQ

What is science staffing?

Science staffing is the process of recruiting, hiring, and managing professionals in roles specific to the scientific industry for fields like biology, chemistry, engineering, and others for research institutes, labs, healthcare companies, tech companies, and more.

A staffing agency can fill roles including direct hire, temporary, or temp-to-hire positions with qualified candidates ready to make an impact and drive innovation based on your needs and goals.

What are the benefits of science staffing?

Science recruiting offers many benefits to businesses and professionals.

For companies, they give them access to specialized talent to fill roles, recruiters who are familiar with their industry, and a partner to manage the recruiting process to make it fast and effective. This includes posting the job, screening candidates, scheduling interviews, and job placement.

For applicants, science staffing agencies give opportunities for career advancement, a partner who will reach out with new opportunities in the future that match their experience and career goals, and a resource to help them through the interview process.

Is third-party staffing better than internal staffing?

This depends on your company’s specific needs.

If you are looking for quick access to highly qualified talent in your industry, a partner to manage the recruitment process, and a shorter time to fill, a third-party agency is a great option!

A third-party staffing agency can especially be beneficial if you are looking to hire temporary contract positions and hard-to-fill positions.

What roles do you specialize in?

We specialize in a variety of science staffing specialties including but not limited to:

  • Life Sciences (Biotechnology, Pharmaceuticals, Medical Devices)
  • Environmental Science & Sustainability
  • Chemistry & Biochemistry
  • Data Science & Bioinformatics
  • Clinical Research & Trials
  • Engineering & Technology in Scientific Fields

We also provide staffing for other STEM industries, healthcare, manufacturing, and more!

How do you find the right candidates for my role?

Hunter Recruiting follows internal best practices and principles developed over the past 20 years to make effective placements. This starts with a rooted connection with our clients and applicants through a deep understanding of their industry, pain points, and goals and efficient communication with all parties.

Every new position search starts with a consultation with a recruiter who gets to know you, what you are looking for in a candidate, and any information we need to lead an effective talent acquisition.

Then we post the opening to our proprietary job board and tap into our talent pool of over 1.2 million candidates to start screening and scheduling interviews.

How quickly can you fill an open position?

This depends on your specific recruiting needs, and whether the role is temporary or permanent.

Hunter Recruitings’ average time to fill a temporary position is 5 days, and direct hire is 20-40 days depending on requirements and timeliness of client interviews.

Time to fill spans from the start of the search until an accepted offer from the candidate.

Do I need to pay for my initial consultation?

No, our initial consultation is free and you don’t pay until a recruitment service agreement is reached.

What are the costs associated with staffing services?

Staffing agencies have recruitment fees depending on the provided services which can vary depending on if the role is permanent or temporary and the extent of services.

This can include making a job placement, onboarding, training, administrative assistance, and more.

Can you assist us with onboarding temporary talent?

Yes! We can help you with onboarding including administrative duties like payroll, scheduling, and training.

Do you manage temp-to-hire contracts?

Yes, we can manage your temp-to-hire employees with sourcing, candidate selection, onboarding, training, payroll, administrative assistance, and more.

Would I benefit from a Managed Service Provider?

If you need to hire for many jobs and want to simplify the process, a managed service provider would be beneficial. Our MSP services provide scalable recruiting services for temporary workers while streamlining the process and containing costs.

We accomplish this through our recruitment software, proprietary job board, and a team of experienced professionals to help with recruiting and any other service you are looking for, including onboarding, payroll, HR compliance, and billing.

Do I need staffing services or RPO (Recruitment Process Outsourcing)?

This depends on your company’s recruitment needs.

Staffing services are best if you are looking to fill a specialized or temporary role by working with a recruitment agency that has experience with qualified candidates in your industry to make a timely and accurate placement.

Recruitment process outsourcing is best for companies looking to outsource the entire recruiting process to a third-party partner who will deliver staffing services on an ongoing basis. Recruitment process outsourcing is a popular option with businesses with high-volume hiring and ongoing recruitment needs. Some companies utilize RPO for a business segment or seasonality, while others utilize RPO services to outsource talent acquisition year-round.
