At D C Powell and Associates, we offer various ways for our customers to engage our professionals at their job sites.
Long-term temporary employment
This refers to job positions that are not permanent but are designed to last for an extended period, often several months or even years. These roles typically arise to cover staffing shortages, special projects, or seasonal demands within a company. Employees in long-term temp positions may receive benefits comparable to full-time staff, and they often have opportunities to gain valuable experience, enhance their skills, and potentially transition into permanent roles within the organization. This type of employment provides flexibility for both workers and employers while allowing individuals to explore different career paths.

Temp-to-permanent employment
This refers to a work arrangement where an employee is initially hired on a temporary basis with the possibility of transitioning to a permanent position. This setup allows both the employer and the employee to evaluate each other’s fit before committing to a long-term employment relationship. It can be a beneficial option for individuals seeking to gain experience while exploring potential career opportunities. Additionally, employers can assess a candidate’s skills and adaptability in a real work environment before making a permanent hiring decision.
Contract-to-hire employment
This is a type of work arrangement in which an individual is initially hired for a fixed-term contract, with the potential for permanent employment at the end of the contract period. This model allows employers to evaluate a candidate’s skills and cultural fit within the organization before making a long-term commitment.
Direct hire staffing
Direct hire staffing refers to a recruitment process in which an employer directly hires a candidate for a permanent position rather than using temporary or contract workers. This approach allows organizations to find qualified talent efficiently, streamlining the hiring process and ensuring that the new employee is dedicated to the company long-term. Direct hire staffing often involves a thorough screening process to match candidates with the specific skill sets and cultural fit needed by the employer.
Short-term employment agreements
These agreements refer to contracts between an employer and an employee that are established for a limited duration. These agreements are typically used for temporary positions or project-based work, providing flexibility for both parties. They outline the specific terms of employment, including job responsibilities, duration of employment, compensation, and any other relevant conditions. This type of agreement is often beneficial for businesses needing to fulfill short-term staffing needs while also offering workers opportunities for temporary work arrangements.
