After a roller coaster ride of unnerving highs and encouraging lows, it seems that U.S. unemployment is finally showing a trend of slow decline.  But with rates last reported at 9.1 percent, there is still a ways to go. It’s an ideal time for companies to find talented new employees, but businesses feeling the pinch of recession are often reluctant to invest in a new hire.

Northwest Staffing Solutions, Inc. in Everett, Wash. offers solutions to this problem. They provide the same quality service as headhunting agencies, but for temp-to-hire candidates.  As a third party agency, the company provides clients the option to outsource fixed expenses such as recruiting, screening and testing, while allowing employers to lease potential employees risk-free.  

Company president and founder Donna Marshall says partnering with Northwest Staffing Solutions allows clients to remain focused on their core operations and ultimately gives them the competitive advantage.  “Our main focus is helping our clients remain nimble and competitive,” Marshall said. “If our clients are looking for talent, we can locate the people they need, even if that means searching for them nationally.” 

Northwest has been matching people and positions for over 20 years.  The company works primarily within the state of Washington, but Marshall looks forward to growth in the near future. “I would like to merge our company with one that has more of a national presence,” she said.  “That way, we can expand our services—more technology, more support, and the ability to increase business nationally.”
