Your Boston staffing alternative

Your Boston staffing agency alternative

Boston is a thriving city that draws talent from across the country. It’s a hot spot for tourism and a cradle of education, home to some of the best colleges and universities. Graduates of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard University, Wellesley College, Tufts University, Boston College, Northeastern University, and Boston University are looking for freelance work in the city, and transplants flock to Boston as well. 

Flourishing industries, such as biotechnology, information technology, engineering, healthcare, higher education, and finance, bring job seekers looking for opportunities in sales and marketing, software development, design, and more. You don’t need to work with an employment agency or put pressure on your human resources team to find the right candidate. 

Whether you’re a financial services company in Boylston or a healthcare business in Waltham, you can find remote or local independent contractors in the Boston area with Talent Scout. Our recruiters can deliver the right match for your business needs in a fraction of the time. With your staffing needs met, you’ll have more time to catch a Red Sox game, stroll the Harborwalk, or enjoy a bowl of clam chowder.

Whether you’re looking for help with a short-term project or a full-time contract role, Talent Scout can meet your hiring needs in these fields better than a recruiting firm.

Use Talent Scout to find a freelancer

Forget hiring a temp agency or boutique staffing company. Talent Scout makes the hiring process faster, easier, and more affordable. You’ll still get a vetted short list of candidates, like you would with a staffing firm. But Talent Scout goes a step further by delivering candidates who have passed skill certifications and are ready to hit the ground running. What’s more, Talent Scout can provide candidates within a few days, while traditional staffing solutions may take months. 

You can also save 30% to 50% when compared to traditional recruitment agencies, which leaves more room in the company budget for new initiatives. But you’ll still get great service from our friendly recruiters, who have years of experience matching candidates with the right company. While it may be cheaper to hand your administrative assistant a stack of resumes, you won’t benefit from the expertise you’d get with Talent Scout.
