Temp Recruitment FAQs

At Precision People we offer specialist temp recruitment services for engineering, technical and management roles. The roles we can supply temp workers for vary widely from a team of Electrical Engineers to Facilities Managers. Get in touch with our team to discuss the full range of industries and roles we cover.

While both are similar, there are differences between temp and contract recruitment. Temp recruitment provides short-term workers for immediate needs, often for more general roles to cover absences or peak periods. This can be for as little as 1 or 2 days to a few weeks or months at a time. Contract recruitment on the other hand involves hiring professionals for a fixed term to complete specific projects, often ranging from around 3 months to a year in length.

Temp recruitment offers businesses a flexible, cost-effective hiring solution with access to a wide range of specialised skills. It enables companies to quickly address short-term needs, manage workload surges, and minimise long-term employment expenses, all while securing high-quality talent for specific projects or tasks.

Hiring a temp for the first time might feel overwhelming, but the process is relatively simple. Here's an easy step-by-step guide to help you through it:

  • Initial Consultation: We’ll talk to you to understand your specific needs.
  • Job Specification: Following this discussion, we’ll go away and create a comprehensive job specification.
  • Talent Search: Next we jump into our wide-reaching network of skilled temp workers to find those who best fit the job spec in hand.
  • Candidate Shortlist: Then we will come back to you with a shortlist of suitable candidates.
  • Interview and Selection: You have the opportunity to interview the candidates we have shortlisted.
  • Offer and Acceptance: Once you have decided on the candidate(s) you want to hire, we handle the offer process.
  • Onboarding: Upon job offer acceptance, we will support the onboarding process to ensure your new temp worker can quickly get up and running, checking in regularly with you for updates and feedback.

Simply put, yes you can. Once you’ve hired a temp worker, if after 12 weeks you would like to offer them a permanent role, we can arrange this for a relevant fee.

Worker quality is important to us. We ensure each of our candidates is of the best standard by having our dedicated recruitment consultants thoroughly vet and verify every candidate. This is achieved by building strong personal and professional relationships with each worker, ensuring a deep understanding of their skills and reliability. Backed by proven track records and client testimonials, this process ensures we provide the ideal match for your project requirements.

To secure the ideal temporary role, start by assessing your skills and interests. Then, research relevant industries and build connections with professionals in those fields. Customise your CV and cover letter for each position you apply to, and actively pursue new opportunities. For the latest temp roles, click here: https://www.precision-people.uk/jobs.
