HR Associates - Temporary Staffing

We are a recognized leader in the provision of temporary staffing resources within the public and not-for-profit sectors. Each year we place thousands of temporary administrative, financial, project and clerical staff with our clients throughout the GTA and the province. We know your business, which means we understand your needs and can provide you with qualified and dedicated people the first time!

First and foremost, we respect the time and expectations of potential candidates and the needs of our clients. All qualified candidates are asked to participate in the same recruitment process and meet the same high standards. Our process includes:

Sourcing – candidates are sourced using a combination of conventional and innovate attraction strategies. In particular, we rely heavily on our candidate database, internet advertising, employee referrals and the traffic to our recruitment website.

Screening – resumes are reviewed and potential candidates invited to an in-depth assessment process.

Candidates Assessment

i.	Testing – candidates are tested for communications, computer skills and technical proficiency in their field. All our tests are online with electronic scoring for consistent results.
ii.	Interview – candidates participate in an in-depth behavioural interview with at least two of our experienced recruiters.
iii.	Background checks – reference checks are conducted on all potential candidates before being considered for temporary assignments. Criminal and education verification checks are conducted, as required, through Kroll Background America.

Candidates that meet our experience, skill and competency requirements are then placed on our roster and considered for future assignments with clients. Orientation materials regarding HR Associates and the temporary staff process are provided to candidates.
