Albany Offers Webinar Series on Entering the Contract Staffing Market with No Out-of-Pocket Costs

Strategies for recruiters, staffing companies to broaden revenue streams with contract staffing

Mountain View, Calif. (PRWEB) September 16, 2009 – The Albany Group is announcing a new webinar series to help recruiters and staffing companies develop a contract staffing model with no start-up costs.

Webinars will be held every Wednesday with the first webinar scheduled for Wed., Sept 23 at 2:00 PM EST. Registration is available through the Albany website at www.thealbanygroup.com/roswebinars.

The economic turbulence globally and in the U.S. has reduced revenues for staffing firms and recruiters that focus on the delivery of direct hire, executive search and retained search services. As those opportunities shrink due to corporate hiring freezes and layoffs, many recruiters are looking for other revenue streams and ways to continue supporting their clients.

Albany’s webinar series shows recruiters how they can easily implement or expand into the contractor placement business with no start up costs and no administrative responsibilities or capital expenditures.

“Contract staffing is one of the few growth areas in the current economy, and provides an excellent opportunity to generate new or additional revenue streams.” said John Smith, Albany vice president, recruiter outsourced services.

Attendees of the webinar will learn how to shift their organization’s daily administrative responsibilities and best practices in:

 
  • HR services: for onboarding, ongoing candidate management, employee and independent contractor agreements
  • Payroll processing: dealing with multi-state processing, tax withholdings, reporting and year end issues
  • Payroll funding: how to fund your contractor placement business
  • Administration: client contract negotiations, timesheet collection, expense processing, client invoicing
  • Credit checks and credit control: how to make sure you get paid
  • Insurance: how to meet client commercial insurance requirements and deal with workers comp issues

“Now is the time for recruiters that have never placed contract workers to develop new channels with existing clients” added Smith, “or for staffing firms dealing with the fallout of the credit crunch to find new ways to fund weekly payroll or new contractor projects”.
