All Your Important Questions,

Employers

How do I get started finding employees through Staffers?

Call 601-362-1010, email inbox@staffersinc.com, or submit the form here to request an employee.  A recruiter will discuss your needs and begin the search.

Why choose Staffers over hiring independently?

Staffers handles recruiting, screening, and candidate assessment, freeing your leadership team to focus on core priorities. A significant number of high-caliber professionals are currently employed yet open to the right opportunity. Most businesses lack access to this passive talent pool. Staffers does not. Through our established networks and local expertise, we connect you with pre-screened, high-performing candidates who are not actively job hunting, delivering stronger results faster and with greater confidence.

Why should Staffers be my first choice?

We deliver proven results: 100+ years of cumulative industry expertise, 88% temp-to-hire success rate, 95% candidate success rate, 2K+ clients served, 12K+ successful placements, a 4.9 Google rating, and 500+ positive testimonials. As a certified woman-owned firm serving Mississippi since 1987, we combine local knowledge with rigorous screening and a relationship focused approach.

What type of jobs do you fill?

Administrative, accounting & finance, medical office, legal, HR, IT, warehouse & logistics, customer service, sales & marketing, management, and government support roles on a temporary, temp-to-hire, or direct hire basis. 

Can Staffers assist with both temporary and permanent hires?

Absolutely. We help you hire part-time, temporary, temporary-to-hire, and permanent or direct hire professional positions. We tailor our services based on your specific needs. You can learn more on our Staffing Services page. 

What are the benefits of temp-to-hire?

Temp-to-hire lets you evaluate a candidate’s real performance and cultural fit on the job before making a permanent commitment, reducing risk while giving both sides a “try before you buy” opportunity.

What does the recruitment process entail?

Our process involves understanding your hiring needs, sourcing suitable candidates, conducting preliminary interviews and screenings, presenting shortlisted candidates for your consideration, coordinating interviews, and assisting in final negotiations.

What kind of background checks do you provide?

We perform reference checks, skills verification, work eligibility screening, and additional background or drug testing when required for the role.

What should I expect once I place an order for an employee?

We confirm role details, source and screen candidates, present qualified matches, coordinate interviews, and support you through the entire process with clear communication.

Do I have to sign a contract?

Terms depend on the service (temporary, temp-to-hire, direct hire, or payrolling). We discuss everything clearly upfront and match the terms to your specific needs.

What if I’m not satisfied with a Staffers placement?
If a placement does not fully meet your expectations, we will act quickly to resolve the situation, including sourcing and presenting new candidates as needed.

We understand how stressful the job search process can be – as a result, we always do our best to get back to candidates as quickly as possible.

May I keep my job search confidential?

Yes, Staffers takes our candidates’ privacy very seriously and keeps all job searches strictly confidential.

What if the job I'm assigned is not for me?

We realize that not every job is a good fit; sometimes, you do not know that until you have tried the position. If you are on an assignment and find it is not going to work for you, we ask that you contact us immediately. You may be asked to remain on an assignment long enough for us to find a replacement, but we will attempt to remedy the situation as quickly as possible. We expect open communication from our employees, and they can expect the same from the Staffers’ office.
