Contract-to-Hire

This option allows the customer who has an interest in hiring quality talent to observe the performance of the consultant for a period of time prior to making the hire decision. The consultant is an employee of IST up to the point of transition to direct employment status with the customer.

Direct Hire

This option is effective to find the passive candidates, best qualified for the customer’s need, but not actively looking to make a change. IST recruiters are in continuing contact with these candidates and understand and look for the opportunities that would interest them.

Client Identified Personnel

Many times customers know of qualified people possessing needs skills, however, for a number of reasons, cannot justify direct hiring with its associated payroll costs and burdens. IST will become the employer and be responsible for all payroll, withholdings and administration functions.
