OUR BUSINESS
At HR Associates, matching exceptional people is our expertise. Since 2007, HR Associates has been a leading provider of thoroughly vetted workers to Miami Valley companies. We offer a complete range of employment solutions and resources you’d expect from a large corporation while maintaining the personal touch of a small company.
With HR Associates’ Gateway Vetting process, candidates are thoroughly screened, so they can perform, day one, with minimal training. Our comprehensive process requires candidates to have a valid driver’s license, a home or cell phone, and a high school diploma or GED. Each candidate must have previous work experience in the field which they are applying for.
After the application process has been initiated, we screen every candidate to include: in-person interviews, a criminal background check, follow-up calls to verify and evaluate a candidate’s work history. Before an associate's start date, our team will administer, one of two types of 10-panel employment drug screens. For transparency, every candidate's Gateway Vetting is documented within our Ultra Staff software database. In addition, HR Associates can perform client orientation and onboarding requirements, including safety videos and skills testing, which will save valuable time and reduce your workload.
Using HR Associates’ advanced staffing software, Ultra Staff, qualified candidates are effortlessly retrieved from our extensive associate database; an associate cooperative recognized as one of the best in the Upper Miami Valley. We also offer bi-directional integration with our database through this interactive website.
As an extension of a client’s HR department, HR Associates’ recruiters assist in the development of a robust client workforce and become an integral part of the client’s human resource team.
Whether you need a career change or just want to get your workforce up to speed, we can help. Serving the Miami Valley staffing industry since 1992, Heather Risner, has the network connections you’re looking for. Let’s go to work!
THE HR DIFFERENCE
From the beginning, HR Associates' business model has included all of the following attributes, which as a client, you can depend upon.
In-depth interviews which include a candidate's desired shift length and any credentials they have such as technical, clerical, trade, or computer skills.
We conduct a thorough employment reference check on each candidate looking for a solid work history and experience.
HR Associates utilizes two types of in-house drug screens, a 99% accurate, FDA certified, Confirm Biosciences' Urinalysis Drug Screen or T-Square's Oral-Fluid Drug Screen, both with unique, built in adulteration. We only use 10 panel screens for complete testing of the most common street drugs in use today. Random testing is available anytime for our clients.
HR Associates has the ability to conduct a complete 5-tier background check; covering criminal, Social Security validation, driving record, BWC (Bureau of Workers Compensation), and education.
Additionally, we include industrial evaluation of basic math, reading comprehension, safety, warehouse skills and in-house dexterity testing.
When an associate with a higher level of expertise is needed, we proudly offer IBM Talent Assessments' skills testing. This optional screening solution covers over 1350 validated assessments in virtually any field including behavioral. Candidates are tested at our facility with instantaneous results.
Clients are able to conduct more in-depth interviews in HR's conference room, making staff changes a little less hectic. When hiring demands discretion, we can help.
HR Associates’ management knows staffing problems don't just happen from 9 to 5, so that’s why we are on call 24/7 to service a client's immediate needs.
