How Job Store Staffing performed under pressure and started a strong partnership with an athletic supplement distribution center.
Background
- They struggled with finding seasonal talent and retaining them throughout their twice/year, 3 month long projects.
- They had liability with layoffs after each season, workers’ comp costs, and employee management during the project.
- We shared how partnering with our team would save them time and money. While they had never partnered with a staffing firm before, they decided to engage Job Store Staffing with the understanding that we needed to staff up effectively during their busy season or step aside.
- Nearly a year later, our partnership together is strong.
