I used to work for a third party staffing firm by the name of Kforce. They treated me well as a salesperson, but ultimately, I left to start my own business.
Today, I had occasion to look for a Kforce Office in St Louis, as I was passing a candidate on to that local office. I searched "kforce staffing st louis" and the only good result was the main site Kforce.com.
I went to the office locations tab, and guess what? There is no listing on the Kforce.com website for an office in St Louis. There is also no listing on the Kforce.com site for Kansas City. Sorry, no results were found.
How could this be? I know for a fact that there are offices in Creve Coeur, MO, and Overland Park, KS. Ahhh, says the smartest of you. If you search Creve Coeur and Overland Park, you can find the offices.
Yes, I can. But how can candidates, who are maybe only given the name of the company, supposed to find the local offices if the company doesn't even take the time to create decent search on their own site?
Does your company website make it hard, or easy to find you?
Okay, our site is no great shakes (working on that) but now you know yet ANOTHER REASON why we bailed on previously described 3rd party conglomo staffing agency based in Tampa to start Intronic.
Plus, we are just better than they are.
