4 Rotate 360 degrees. See your team s potential. Plug in. Specific Skill Sets The loaded cost to retain employees can be as much as twice their salary! We can help you reduce that cost by a third or more. Our Specialist Staffing Services will help you find the perfect talent or provide a more affordable way to keep the talent you ve already got. Our team of Specialists (technical writers, copywriters, designers, web producers, production and traffic managers, software developers and programmers, and IT professionals) come from Fortune 500 companies and leading advertising agencies. If you would like to work with a specific individual, SprocketPro can take them on as an employee (a Sprocket Specialist). You get to set their rate. You can have them work on-site. You get the benefits of an employer-employee relationship without the responsibilities or overhead costs of maintaining an employee. Of course, you still retain the right to terminate service at any time should you be dissatisfied with an individual s performance. ONBOARDING

Meanwhile, we contact the specialist to get a background check started, then proceed with the rest of the paperwork. This process takes about two weeks. PROCESS Based on the information you provide, SprocketPro s you a cost estimate and you open a PO. We ll also include information about requesting badges, phones, and internal network access. Once your PO has been approved, and the Specialist has returned their newhire documents and signed a contract, they re ready for work!
