Our application process is easy! You provide your contact info, a few details about what your desired placement is and submit your resume for review. We contact you to setup a zoom interview (yep, from anywhere in the world). Based on your needs we link you with one or more of our many clients looking for your skills. It’s really that easy! Oh and did we mention it’s free?
We assume all responsibility for recruiting and screening candidates so you can focus on your own business.
With this option you observe the employee on the job as a temp to determine if he or she is a long-term fit for the position.
This option allows you to quickly fill short-term projects with qualified, screened employees for as long as needed.
Need employees but don’t want to deal with the paperwork? We hire them on your behalf and handle all of the paperwork.
“I’ve had enough bad experiences with staffing agencies to be very reluctant to engage their services. AKHIRE, however, has really saved the day for my company this year. We had to fill three temp positions basically overnight, and Phil at AKHIRE sprang into action. Unlike another staffing agency I engaged at the same time, Phil really listened when I told him what kind of candidates we were looking for. And he found multiple candidates who fit the bill perfectly. One of them fit in so well that she was offered a permanent position with us. I’ve gotten the impression that Phil really carefully screens candidates before sending them our way. Meanwhile, the other agency hasn’t sent us any candidates we were interested in. I highly recommend AKHIRE.”

“Excellent communications with the Owner/Manager at AKHIRE – Todd went to great lengths to help solve my recruitment/hiring issues. Thoroughly recommended.”
Richard O’Meara, Orica Mining Services, Alaska
“Our company has used AKHIRE twice now and both times they have given nothing but top quality employees with proper work experience in a timely fashion. They are very responsive and follow-up with you regularly in an effort to find you the best staff possible for your company in a timely fashion. I would highly recommend using their professional services to help you find the right staff, that is the right fit for you and that will stay long-term.”
Keller Williams Real Estate, Anchorage
“AKHIRE has helped our company on a few different occasions for filling driver positions in Alaska. The market is very difficult for recruiting CDL A Drivers and Todd has always delivered. AKHIRE recruits for a variety of different positions and is a valuable resource to our company.”
Athena Simpson, Span Alaska, Anchorage
We can help you fill positions with qualified candidates fast, you don’t have to worry about the cumbersome process of setting up payroll and benefits for new workers, and assignments can be terminated at any time.
We quickly find individuals with specific skill sets or hard-to-find work experience. They can be used for a brief period or they can be hired permanently. This flexibility enables you to serve your organization in a strategic manner. You can respond quickly to changing business needs without burdening your company with excessive head count or unnecessary legal exposure.
For routine needs, we can deliver workers for daily, seasonal, or cyclical assignments in a timely manner. This approach to staffing is inherently more efficient than the traditional approach – advertising a position, wading through stacks of resumes, running background checks, and then having to wait two weeks or more for new hires to start. In fact, without the services of staffing firms like AKHIRE, it would be nearly impossible for many organizations to staff up for short-term projects or find temporary replacements for employees who are sick or on vacation.
We manage the associated administrative functions, including payroll and compliance with federal and state requirements and reporting of our temps. We process and pay for all aspects of the tempʼs payroll, including the cost of workersʼ compensation, unemployment insurance, and all required local, state and federal payroll taxes. All employee payroll checks come directly from us. We also process their W2 at the end of the year.
Our price for temporary staff includes payroll taxes, worker’s compensation, liability insurance and other required fees. We bill you every two weeks based on a predefined markup and bill rate for each hour the employee works.
With the direct hire option we assume all responsibility for recruiting and screening candidates so you can focus on your business while we use a range of recruiting resources to select the perfect employee that goes directly to work for your company. These employees never work as a temp and start from day one as your own employee. In most cases, for our services we charge you a one-time percentage of the employee’s projected first year salary.
Like our temporary staffing only with this option you can observe the employee on the job to determine if he or she is the right fit for the position. If they are, then make them your own permanent employee. If they haven’t worked many hours yet there might be a placement fee (defined in the beginning) but if they have worked enough hours as a temp you can convert them for free.
Payrolling is a weird term. What it basically means is you send us employees you found on your own and we handle their onboarding, weekly payroll, all paperwork and payroll cost (yes, including worker’s comp) and any other related tasks required for you to have the employees work for you. We handle the paperwork and report their employment to the required parties on your behalf. So payrolling is like having employees, but the easier way!
“We used their services as out of state contractors. It was far more simple to have our workers come from AKHIRE than for us to set up payroll, taxes, work comp, etc for a 2 month project. Todd was excellent at understanding our short term needs.”
Mason Harris, Rooflifters USA, LLC, Florida
“AKHIRE was there when our organization had a severe staffing shortage and needed assistance in recruiting. The AKHIRE recruiters worked hard to understand our needs and provide leads on individuals with the necessary qualifications for hard to fill positions. Their “Temp to Hire” process is a great way to assess a person to ensure they are a good fit for the organization before hiring them as a permanent employee.”
