Logistics Staffing in Newark, explained.
The logistics staffing market in Newark
Newark is a market of about 310,000 people where logistics and pharmaceuticals employers hire steadily. The people we place come from Newark and the towns around it, including Heights and Midtown.
Employers here compete on pay and on how fast they move, so a slow hiring process loses good people. We keep a screened bench warm so we are not starting from zero when you call.
For pay, the New Jersey minimum wage is $15.92, and we build rates that meet or beat what local employers actually pay to keep their teams. Source: U.S. Department of Labor.
How hiring works in Newark
Every logistics staffing placement in Newark starts the same way. We write down the real job: the tasks, the shift, the must-haves, and the pay range.
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.
Temporary, temp to hire, or direct hire
You can bring people on three ways in Newark. Temporary covers short term, seasonal, and surge needs, and we run payroll, taxes, and workers compensation while they are on assignment.
Temp to hire lets you try someone on the job before you commit, then convert them to your payroll. Direct hire adds them to your team from day one.
Most Newark employers use a mix across the year, and we help you pick the option that fits each role and your budget.
