How hiring works in Delta

Then we pull from candidates we already know and screen them for work history, reliability, and the right credentials before you ever see a name. You interview the people you like, and we handle the offer, the paperwork, and onboarding.
Hiring options for Delta employers
You can bring people on three ways in Delta. Temporary covers short term, seasonal, and surge needs, and we run payroll, taxes, and workers compensation while they are on assignment.
