How Is a Staffing Agency Different from A Temp Agency?

While both temp and staffing agencies help people find employment, the opportunities they offer to job seekers are very different.

Both operate similarly – they recruit job seekers for clients who need employees to fill a labor gap. But the differences are pretty significant regarding length and type of employment.

Staffing Agencies Offer Full-Time Employment
Temp agencies do precisely what it sounds like – they offer temporary work for job seekers. They deal in short-term projects that last anywhere from one day to a few months. Candidates often fill roles for seasonal assignments, special projects, or same-day work. It’s not unheard of for people working with temp agencies to be sent to a different job site every week – even daily.

Permanent staffing agencies offer longer-term opportunities for their job seekers. Positions are usually temp-to-hire or direct-hire. Temp-to-hire is what it sounds like – a temporary position with the possibility of a full-time hire at the end of the agreed period. Temp-to-hire is a way for companies and employees to try out a place and see if it’s a good match.

Direct hire is a more traditional interview-to-full-time-position process. A staffing agency develops relationships with local businesses, and when that business has a hiring need, they put out the position, and the staffing agency recruits potential hires.
