For pay, the British Columbia minimum wage is $17.85, and we build rates that meet or beat what local employers actually pay to keep their teams. Source: U.S. Department of Labor.
From brief to start date in Coquitlam
The process is simple and it does not waste your time. We get the light industrial staffing role on paper first, the duties, the schedule, the rate, and the deal breakers.
From there we work our screened bench, check history and credentials, and bring you a short list of people who fit. You interview, and we close the offer and run onboarding so nothing slips.
