As a company expands, contracts, and transforms, it can create skill gaps within the existing staff. Although the company may recognize these deficits, few are equipped to articulate the specific modifications needed to close these gaps by hiring the right talent. In the earliest phase of engagement, we help employers perform an overall analysis in order to determine the type of candidate they need to hire in order to deliver their short- and long-term strategies. By helping organizations define their needs clearly, we lay the groundwork for finding the right people.
Defining a measurable, objective process for assessing potential candidates is crucial for every business. Repeatedly, we have seen such companies fill critical roles based on emotional criteria after being flooded with personal referrals. Choosing Kent Employment Solutions to design your hiring process will help you avoid this pitfall by creating a structure that focuses on skills, knowledge, abilities, and fit.
Our executive recruiting skills are unmatched in the areas of accounting, finance, human resources, administration and operations. Operating with the highest ethical standards and complete confidentiality, we identify, assess, and recruit the best executives in the Northwest and beyond, bringing their senior leadership skills to Portland to give your organization a competitive edge.

Through this process, you gain access to the entire candidate pool—including passive job seekers and candidates that you did not elect to interview or hire who may yet be appropriate for future roles.
We utilize our extensive network of contacts to identify qualified candidates for staff roles in the areas of accounting, finance, human resources, administration, sales, and operations. Our process is a risk-free and cost-effective way to bring top talent directly into your organization:
Employers choose this option when they need interim help and are not seeking to hire someone on long term. We provide job candidates who best fit your temporary needs and understand your objectives and finite nature of the work. In addition to the most common reasons for seeking this support—vacation replacement, seasonal assistance, and so on—bringing in talent for short engagements can help you meet other objectives in ways you may not have considered:
If you would prefer to evaluate a person’s performance before moving them into a permanent role, we can match you with workers open to the temp-to-hire arrangement. The built-in flexibility of this engagement gives you the opportunity to evaluate both the position and the person in it. Job seekers also like this option because it allows to “preview” a job and a company before making a decision.
The employer may convert the temp-to-hire candidate before the 520 hours are complete by paying a conversion charge based on the amount of time the temporary employee worked as a temporary employee with your organization. There is no replacement guarantee with this option.
