Staffing

Employment opportunities with companies, especially in the IT arena, is on the increase and the demand for resources in big data, mobile, cloud and security is growing. According to Bureau of Labor Statistics data, a steady growth rate of 2.1 percent is observed and projections confirm the same growth rate for the foreseeable future. Technology worker’s salaries remained consistent for the last 10 years and the challenge many companies face is to secure the right person for the right position.

ISM is very well suited to assist companies in taking this challenge head on. It is well understood that workforce needs are cyclical and ISM’s services are targeted to support the ever-changing technology landscape. ISM’s service offering includes contract, contract-to-hire and direct hire/placement staffing options that will allow companies to increase or decrease the workforce.

Contract

Temporary staff augmentation on a contract basis allows companies to add resources to projects when needed, with the option to reduce the teams during periods of slower progress. This flexibility allows companies the maintain desired staff levels but also add new skills to the team using contractor with niche skillsets

Contract-to-Hire

Companies may execute the option to contract candidates with the option to hire the person permanently, after a period of time. The most common of these arrangements is hiring the candidate after 6 months, with no placement fee. This flexibility allows companies to review the potential employee’s performance and skills to determine compatibility with company culture and team dynamics.

Direct Placement

ISM translates the direct placement model to mean that ISM assumes all responsibility for recruiting the candidate, interview and screen the candidate by ISM’s technical staff and provide the customer with a short-list of potential employees that will fit the job requirement. This process will allow customers to only review a few resumes of well-suited candidate thus saving time by avoiding tedious interview processes.
