Direct hiring is when a company offers you a job without using a third party. These jobs are typically permanent or long-term positions with benefits, a salary and paid time off (PTO).
The recruitment process tends to be longer and more thorough. As the employer is making a long-term investment in you, they want to ensure you are the right person for the job.
While a recruitment firm might manage the initial recruiting process, you report to the hiring company if your application is successful.
A company will directly hire for several reasons:
– Fill positions for leadership roles
– Create a loyal and permanent workforce
– Recruit higher-quality talent
– Simplify the hiring process
