The combination of an exclusive focus on logistics, screening tools utilized in the application process, and the experience of branch staff makes ProLogistix the leading provider of logistics talent in the country. Unlike other staffing organizations, 100% of ProLogistix recruiting efforts are logistics centered. Branch staff is trained in logistics, and they understand the intricacies of the industry. ProLogistix is fortunate to have built a reputation in the communities served as the "go-to" company when seeking a job in a warehouse or distribution center.

When the unemployment rate is low, as it is now (2.5% - 4%) in most cities, staffing organizations have a harder time finding qualified candidates. This fact caused ProLogistix, the leader in logistics staffing to devise a way to reach into the pool of currently employed workers to find the most qualified candidates.

According to Brian Devine, division vice-president of ProLogistix, “In most cases, we are selecting our employees from the unemployed (or under-employed) pool of workers. Most employees would not leave a full-time position to take a temporary or temp-to-hire assignment. So we developed the QuickHire option as a great alternative for employers and employees because we put the candidate through our entire ProLogistix screening process and schedule a formal interview with our client. Once the client selects the candidate, they start on the client’s payroll immediately. We charge a small finders fee each week for ten weeks.”

The QuickHire option offers an alternative to temp-to hire, giving employers the opportunity to select from currently-employed candidates who would not otherwise consider temp-to-hire assignments.
The benefits of QuickHire include:
 Increased Applicant Pool
 Possibility to improve caliber of candidates
 Utilize our recruiting, testing, and screening process
 Employee may qualify for company benefits sooner
 Employer plays an important part of hiring process
 Employer is billed weekly only for weeks the employee worked, billing stops if they leave position before ten weeks.

The types of positions ProLogistix fills include:
• Loaders and Unloaders
• Order Selectors
• Warehouse Associates
• Shipping and Receiving
• Forklift Operators
• Quality Assurance
• Supervisors
• Warehouse Managers
• Operations Manager
