Alternative Staffing and Job Placement
Blue Jacket is dealing with a clientele that is doing everything they can with the resource we provide to exhibit their want to earn their seat back at the table. Blue Jacket offers these individuals as Direct Placements or Temporary Placements through our Temporary Staffing Enterprise. This enterprise enables you to "try before you buy," which lowers the risk for all parties involved and allows a match to be made on a trial basis, saving money and time for the client company.
Blue Jacket can reduce your cost-per-hire, time-to-hire and recruiting workload.
Our services are designed to help you make more effective and successful hiring
decisions, and to increase retention. Blue Jacket offers motivated candidates
that possess a criminal background; candidates that are proving that they can earn a
second chance.
Every Staffing Company says they are different. Consider our motivation.
• The best fit for your company fulfills our social mission.
• You talk, we will listen to your needs.
Why work with us?
WOTC and WtW Tax Credits. Blue Jacket clients may be eligible under the Work Opportunity Tax Credit Program and Welfare to Work qualifications. We will prepare the paperwork if you hire permanent.
Bonded Employees. An additional assurance, including regular drug screening, to protect your business.
Training Services. The Employment Academy - 30-hour pre-employment training is rigid and demanding, teaching how to get and keep a job with a felony conviction, providing for oneself, and how to be a good employee. Our supportive services and resources will have a powerful affect on your company.
Disciplined Selection Process. Provides behavioral interviewing to shorten your HR process and ensure the right candidate for the position to be filled. We ensure that we do not send someone that we do not believe in.
Position Assessment Services. Drug tested, evaluated, on a career track, Blue Jacket provides to you the candidate you seek, from entry-level to skilled positions, such as cashier, factory-warehouse, construction, receptionist, clerical, data processing, web and graphic designing, and customer service representative, just to name a few.
Partnership. Blue Jacket works with a number of nonprofit and governmental agencies to assist our clients.
Competitive Rates. Designed to give your company financial benefits as well as social benefits. The marginal markup helps fund the training and supportive services, not profits for executives and shareholders.
No Temp-to-Perm Conversion Fees. Our Mission is for all our clients to obtain a permanent position.
Immediate Replacement. If the candidate did not match the position.
Transitional Work Crews
Blue Jacket has been awarded contracts to construct seasonal displays, change over for events, minor lawn maintenance and cleanup, and other activities where those wanting a transitional wage can be observed for on-the-job skills and get experience at the same time. This gives us a solid perspective of the candidate’s work ethic, attitude and motivation before we make a placement. Blue Jacket has sent out 2 - 8 person crews with supervisors and has very pleased customers as a result.
There is solid evidence that this new generation of programs serving welfare recipients and other hard-to-employ adults is working. According
to a national study of transitional jobs programs, 39 to 82 percent of participants who enroll complete the program. Of those who finish the program, 81 to
94 percent find unsubsidized employment.
