Recruiting a new member for your SaaS team can be a time and money consuming task. You need to think realistically whether your team has the time, resources and expertise to find the best individual to join your business. If the answer isn’t a strong yes, then you may want to consider staffing outsourcing.
Like other businesses, maybe you’re still wondering why you should use staffing outsourcing for your SaaS. Let’s take a look at why you might want to do so:
Better quality talents
One of the main reasons to choose staffing outsourcing is access to super talents. Staffing companies have the resources and time to find the best talent for your team. The experts within a staffing agency understand recruiting practices and employment trends. They also have extensive industry knowledge in particular fields.
A staffing agency will look for candidates that have certain criteria not just for the position you need. They will also search for someone who is also self-driven to help your SaaS achieve its goals. These agencies will go the extra mile to save you time just to find the perfect fit candidates.
Saves time & keeps you focused on your business
When you have an immediate need for staffing a new project, taking the necessary time to focus on recruiting new team members can result in neglecting other important aspects of your business operations. On the other hand, a staffing agency will expertly qualify, screen, and interview candidates quickly. Stepping away from the daily operations of your SaaS to fill staffing vacancies isn’t the most valuable use of your time. This is why using staffing outsourcing will leave you time to focus on the performance and productivity of your business.
A staffing company handles all the overhead and takes away all your administrative burdens such as: hiring, payroll, work benefits. Only the business requirements and the team are managed by you according to your needs. By taking care of all these aspects, staffing outsourcing saves your company and your employees a lot of energy. That means more time, more money and more focus. Isn’t this something that keeps you up at night?
Saves money
Hiring can be expensive. The costs of the entire in-house process can really mount up quickly. Staffing outsourcing isn’t for free, as well. Although, the cost is significantly lower than the costs associated with hiring and training new team members on your own. All of the costs of recruiting, advertising, interviewing, background checking, and skills testing will be rolled into one single fee.
Moreover, staffing outsourcing will also reduce your costs of training as the recruited candidates will have the skills and expertise needed to get the job done right from the very beginning. Since a staffing agency takes into consideration factors and qualities that ensure long-term hires, you’ll also reduce your turnover costs.
Faster Hiring
Having positions left open for a long time can be aching for everyone in your team. The reduced productivity and increased workload might lead to lost opportunities and a steep decrease of your current team’s efficiency and overall mood.
When you outsource staffing services, you won’t have to deal with these issues. You’ll get your desired team members much faster, because staffing companies already have wide candidate pools and top talent to call on. They won’t get distracted by other responsibilities and tasks like your managers or HR specialists would. They’ll be fully dedicated to the hiring process, without delay and procrastination, so you can fill those positions in no time.
Workforce Flexibility
You just signed a short-time project and need highly-skilled individuals for it? Staffing agencies always have a list of highly-qualified professionals ready for project based jobs. One of the benefits of staffing outsourcing is that it’s easier than ever to get temporary workforce when needed. If you need assistance filling positions when employees are on vacation or taking leave, outsourced staff can also fill the void. You can increase or decrease your workforce whenever your workload calls for it.
