Workers Direct offers both services plus temp-to-perm recruitment , allowing businesses to evaluate temporary receptionists in real working conditions for 4-12 weeks before offering permanent positions. This "try before you buy" approach reduces hiring risks and improves retention rates, with 92% success rates compared to 68% for direct permanent hires.
