FAQs

An interim position is a role filled temporarily by an experienced professional while a company searches for a permanent hire, or during a transition like a sudden departure. The interim hire keeps the work moving and hands off when the permanent hire starts. It’s different from temporary staffing, which covers a defined project or period rather than an open role.

Most interim engagements run 2-6 months while the permanent search wraps up, though some go longer.

Yes. If the interim turns out to be the right long-term fit, you can convert them with no conversion fee.

Every candidate goes through skills assessments, communication testing, and interviews before they reach you. That thorough vetting helps you choose talent ready to contribute.

We place interim talent across experience levels, from specialists and coordinators to senior individual contributors, managers, and directors, across most functions.

That depends on your preference. We offer both managed staffing and direct-hire placements. Choose whichever fits your structure.
