We act as a consultant for our client companies to find talent to place in their mission-critical roles. We place talent on a permanent or temporary basis depending on the nature of the project or needs of the client.
We proudly offer 401(k) plans, profit sharing, health, dental, and vision for qualifying candidates and other benefits depending on the terms of your contract. All candidates work for us on a W2 basis and we provide extensive liability coverage and benefits packages for each individual.
We pay weekly. We are proud of our ability to consistently deliver weekly payroll for employees.
Your contract will depend on the nature of the work (permanent or temporary). We work with you on a case-by-case basis to set the talent contract for the work in our client company.
We proactively identify new opportunities before your contract expires. We stay in communication to ensure that you understand your next options. Once your contract expires, we seamlessly transfer you to the next contract.
We pre-screen all talent through background checks, references, and I-9 compliance verification. We then assess your skills, background, education, training, and past work history. We create a profile of your expertise, then intelligently match you to available job opportunities with our client companies. We communicate with you to identify the ideal match for you, both professionally and personally.
The length of the onboarding process varies by candidate. Every candidate must complete a drug test, background investigation, employment verification, and technical and behavioral interview. We stay in constant communication with you throughout the process to follow up with additional information required to add you to our talent pool. Once you are onboarded, we actively probe our client companies to find the ideal role that matches your profile.
We provide preliminary training on how to enter into a new work environment. However, specific training is typically provided by client companies once you are placed in a new role.
Having your own personal protection equipment is a bonus. Most client companies will provide on-site PPE depending on the nature of the contracted work.
Our client companies will provide the tools necessary to perform work at their facility or on-site at an external location.
We place candidates in industries that include Aerospace, Aviation, Chemicals, Construction, Manufacturing, Oil & Gas, Power Delivery, Power Generation, Renewables, Telecom, Transportation/Logistics, and Utilities.
We place candidates in roles across the country. We work in the Southwestern U.S. (Texas and surrounding states), Northeast (New York, Pennsylvania, and New England states), Midwest (Missouri, Illinois, and more states), South (Georgia, Arkansas, and Gulf Coast states), and West (Colorado, Dakotas, and West Coast).
We do not work directly with unions or partner with unions. We will work with client companies running a union site as long as the site is 51 percent non-union.
We are capable of doing business in all of the lower 48 U.S. states. We will work with client companies on a case-by-case basis for projects outside of the Contintental U.S.
Part of our relationship-building approach is to start with an assessment of business needs. From this assessment, our experienced and knowledgeable team is capable of building a full business plan that includes recommendations for satisfying hard-to-fill positions with specialized talent. Our value-add business analysis and business planning service is offered on a relationship-by-relationship basis with each client.
We do not place limitations on the company size that we work with. We are capable of scaling down or up to meet the specific talent needs of each client company through our intelligent approach to matching specialized talent with hard-to-fill roles.
We currently do not provide staff augmentation services outside of the United States.
Our consulting and recruiting service is divided into two main focuses: engineering (led by managing partner Chris Tedder) and skilled trades (led by managing partner Justin Martin).
Our teams are divided into managing partners, regional managers, on-site managers, recruiters, business development, and back-office support staff.
We have two consulting and recruitment practices: engineering and skilled trades. We primarily focus on supplying niche or hard-to-find engineering and skilled trades professionals in critical industries.
For direct hire, we handle each employee’s onboarding and removal from your company. With contract-to-hire, the candidate is initially employed as a contractor, undergoes our onboarding process, receives benefits, and is pay-rolled through Rayne Staffing. After a defined period, you have the option to convert the contractor to a direct employee of your organization, in which you’d assume the employment cost burdens, payroll, and benefit administration.
After an assignment comes to an end, we oversee the effective demobilization of the contractor, from providing formal notice through to finalizing payroll and covering unemployment costs.
Our company was built on contract staffing. Contract is our bread and butter. However, we have expanded our capabilities to strongly support direct hire to build long-term staff augmentation relationships with client companies. We facilitate the interview process for each client company, work diligently through the offer stage, and ensure the best possible change of securing the ideal candidate for your role. The employee is then employed directly by your company from Day One.
Because of our Lean approach to staff augmentation, we have the flexibility and resources to onboard a large volume of individuals on a short period of time. We still complete background screenings and compliance checks before placing talent in your company. Then, we facilitate payroll for a large group of talent with strong financial backing and full payroll infrastructure from our back office team.
Every candidate that we hire completes a strenuous hiring process. Each candidate must complete a drug/alcohol test, background investigation, employment verification, and technical and behavioral interview.
We are compliant with FLSA, Affordable Care Act, and OSHA standards. We follow a robust safety policy when training each employee before being placed in your company. We also verify I-9 compliance to ensure that candidates are legally entitled to work for your company.
Each individual is classified as a W2 employee. We pay the statutory, federal state, and local states for hiring an employee in the United States. We also carry extensive liability and worker’s comp insurance for each employee.
Our main headquarters is in Houston, Texas. We also have an office in Dallas. We are capable of placing talent throughout the United States.
