An hour-long interview can reveal communication skills and personal chemistry, but it tells you almost nothing about whether the applicant will deliver stable performance at the assembly line a month after starting.
The Try & Hire model combines the best of temporary assignment and direct hiring onto your own payroll.
How Try & Hire works in practice
- Phase 1: temporary assignment (trial run): The candidate joins your workplace as an employee of the staffing agency. You assess their attendance, pace and teamwork directly on the shop floor over 3 to 6 months.
- Phase 2: minimal administrative risk: If the candidate does not meet your internal quality criteria, the agency withdraws them under the agreed terms and replaces them with another worker, without you having to deal with notices or severance pay.
- Phase 3: transfer to your payroll on agreed terms: After the agreed period, you take the vetted, trained worker onto your own payroll under the conditions agreed in the contract.
Why Try & Hire beats ordinary recruitment
- Lower risk of a wrong choice: You only hire people who have proved themselves in a demanding operation.
- Saves the HR manager's time: No hours lost on unsuccessful candidates.
- Greater loyalty of the workers you take on: The employee sees the move to your payroll as a well-earned reward for stable performance.
