The traditional process of finding the best talent
When it comes to the traditional process of finding the best talent to fit your individual needs, we don't reinvent the wheel; we make it a smoother ride.
Our direct hire offering entails a fee based on a percentage of the candidate's compensation and a guarantee around the retention timeline of the candidate. The percentage and guarantee vary based on the type of role being filled. This process allows us to find qualified candidates in manufacturing to fit the specific needs of each individual client and partner. Our dedicated recruiters complement your organization's hiring process, making it seamless and delivering quality applicants right to your doorstep.
A stronger alternative to traditional staffing
Take your team to the next level by utilizing a unique staffing method that allows you to hire directly from the most robust talent pools.
The direct staffing approach strategy allows you to hire your preferred candidate directly onto your payroll from day one while paying a spread out placement fee over the first 90 days of a new team member's employment. If a referred candidate does not work out over their 90-day probationary period, billing for that candidate is stopped. This streamlined approach eases your internal team's administrative burden around staffing. The immediate stability and seniority that your new team member will experience has proven to increase retention rates when compared with traditional staffing agencies.

You will not be disappointed getting to know them.Posted on Trudy Cheney Xaloy has partnered with Rust Belt Recruiting for about 2 years (so far!) with excellent results. They are truly an extension of our team. They are responsive, understand our specific needs, and deliver good candidates. Hannah Baeten, our recruiter, is fabulous to work with. To her credit, we’ve had candidates tell us they didn’t realize she wasn’t an Xaloy employee. It’s not often new employees compliment the recruiter they worked with! Taylor Evans is great about asking for feedback to make sure his team is meeting our expectations. He’s willing to customize and adjust as needed to ensure Rust Belt is adding value. One of the best partnerships I’ve experienced!Posted on John S Working with Ashley to find a niche position for my company. She’s a rockstar!
