How to Hire Staff For Your Next Event

Posted on 07/03 by Erin Helms

Summer is the busy season for just about everyone, between festivals, big corporate events, trade shows, concerts, parties, etc. It’s the time of year when your company might be over-extended in terms of having enough staff on hand to fulfill all your demands, or maybe you just wish you had some extra people to help lighten the workload for everyone and make things run even more smoothly. The good news is that LaborMAX can help! The solution to your stress is hiring staff on an event-by-event basis, as needed, to have extra hands available when needed. As a staffing company, we work with job candidates who have all kinds of specialized skills, some of whom are looking for a little extra cash and would like to take temporary work to fill their bank accounts while they have the chance. Here’s why you should consider hiring staff in partnership with LaborMAX for your summer event needs:

Access to skilled workers when you need them, for as long as you need them

As a staffing company, we go through a screening process with all our job candidates as part of their onboarding. We know their abilities, strengths and can match the right candidates with your exact needs -- quickly! All you need to do is tell us what you need and how many people you’d like to add, and we’ll find them for you.

Reduced time and cost for hiring

By working with LaborMAX, you’ll hand over the task of hiring. We’ll search through our candidate database to find qualified people, contact them, and if they agree to the job, we’ll sign them up for the duration you need. We also handle job postings, as needed, in addition to interviews and background checks where applicable, so you can focus on your mile-long to-do list. And because you’re partnering with us, we’ll also handle payroll and all other paperwork for these employees, so your staff is free to continue with their regular responsibilities.

It’s a far more flexible arrangement that allows you to scale up or down as needed

If you know you’ll need a dozen people to set up an event but only 10 or 8 to break it down, we can provide exactly the number of people you need for your event. There’s no long-term commitment to bring someone onto your payroll as a permanent employee only to let them go after the summer months or when demand decreases.

Last-minute emergency changes your need? We can address that

If half your team calls out sick the night before your biggest event of the year, call LaborMAX. If your event suddenly has a 50% increase in expected attendance, call LaborMAX. We can contact our qualified employees looking for temporary work and have each position filled quickly. Short notice is not a problem for us -- and it won’t be a problem for you either.

Take your hiring to the max with LaborMAX

Even the most detail-oriented event organizer knows human nature can throw off the most carefully scripted event. By working with LaborMAX, you can feel confident that no matter what happens, you’ll have exactly the number of employees you need to make the event a resounding success.
