Frequently Asked Questions
Why should we choose a local boutique supplier like Talentlab for temp staffing?
From our experience on global temp programs, offshore agencies often churn and burn local temp talent. That approach works temporarily—until it doesn’t. Over ten years as the highest-rated temp vendor on many programs has shown that contractors appreciate being treated fairly and with respect. Our clients value having a local contact who genuinely cares about the engagement’s success. Choose Talentlab because we live in our local markets and face the results of our work every day. Offshore vendors simply haven’t matched our quality, speed, or understanding of the local market.
What does it cost to hire a contingent or temporary worker?
Pricing depends on whether your company uses an MSP or wants to payroll a contractor directly. In the most common model, we partner with our contractors and charge the employer an all-inclusive hourly rate. Talentlab takes only a small percentage to cover insurance, operations, payrolling, and a modest revenue share. The majority of what employers pay goes directly to the person doing the work. This approach allows us to deliver better-quality contractors and keep them engaged throughout the contract.
How does the hiring process work?
As a temp contractor, the payrolling process is handled by Talentlab. We ensure contractors receive steady payments and shield them from issues such as delayed invoices or tax paperwork. Our clients manage and oversee any onsite work directly, with Talentlab providing support without interfering in day-to-day operations.
Can a temporary role lead to a permanent position?
Yes. Talentlab fully supports offering contractors permanent roles. Ultimately, it is the contractor’s choice, but we facilitate negotiations and work to bring both sides together. There is no additional cost to convert temp employees to permanent after their initial contract, and we love helping contractors transition to full-time positions.
