April 13, 2009 - Weave Partners is offering free human resources services to organizations struggling with staffing requirements during these tough economic times. Catherine Chambers, the Executive Director of Weave Partners, says that free HR is welcome in a number of industries and sectors. The menu of HR services includes: recruitment/selection, training, and orientation.
Unlike traditional agencies that charge an average of $3000 per placement, Weave Partners does not charge any fees for matching educated, experienced and qualified candidates with employers who need them.
Organizations that have signed up with Weave Partners are also benefiting from competitive hourly wages. According to Chambers, the average rate is between $8-$10USD/hour for administrative assistants, copywriters, transcribers, and customer service representative.
Another key difference between Weave Partners and traditional HR firms is that their candidates work from home. “Home-based employment appeals to organizations who have realized the benefits of tapping into remote talent,” says Chambers. In addition to reduced overhead, organizations like the fact that they contribute to corporate social responsibility objectives by working with Weave Partners.
CSR benefits include: reduced carbon emissions, increased opportunities for persons with disabilities, and the achievement of diversity objectives. Chambers believes that a focus on CSR will enable companies to add value and build an enduring brand during tough economic times.
