How to read the scorecard

Rating is each agency’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many people have rated it, set against the others on this page. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from hundreds of people carries more weight than a 4.9 from a few dozen. Recency tracks how steadily new reviews keep arriving.

What does a staffing agency cost?

Agencies structure their fees differently, so ask any of them how pay and charges work before you sign anything. For employers, the cost depends on whether the role is temporary, temp-to-hire or direct hire, and on how specialized it is. No prices are published here.
