Contract Staffing FAQs
What is contract staffing?
Contract staffing connects Minneapolis employers with skilled marketing, creative, HR, and finance professionals for defined periods — without the overhead of a permanent hire. The contractor works on-site or remotely for your team while Celarity handles payroll, taxes, and benefits administration.
What is your Staffing pricing model?
Celarity’s staffing pricing is simple and transparent — you’ll know the hourly bill rate before your consultant starts. The rate is based on skills, experience, availability, location, and hours per week. You approve weekly timecards, and invoices follow the following week. No surprises.
What makes Celarity different from other staffing firms?
Celarity is Minnesota’s most award-winning staffing partner with 30+ years of experience, NPS scores in the top 5% worldwide, and seven consecutive Best Places to Work awards. Low internal turnover means you work with experienced recruiters who know your industry — and we focus on culture fit and long-term success, not just filling seats.
How do we get started with Celarity?
Simply reach out and we’ll schedule a Day 1 discovery call to learn what you need and get moving fast. Most placements begin within a few days of that initial conversation.
What's the difference between staffing and recruiting?
Staffing refers to contract, freelance, or temporary placements where the professional remains on Celarity’s payroll. Recruiting is for permanent, full-time roles where the candidate joins your payroll directly. Celarity offers both depending on your hiring needs.
Do you offer contract-to-hire or temporary options?
Yes. Celarity offers contract, freelance, and contract-to-hire solutions. For contract-to-hire, the fee is calculated as a percentage of first-year salary and decreases the more hours worked. There are no fees if either party decides not to move forward.
What types of roles do you fill?
Celarity specializes in contract staffing for Marketing, Creative, Digital, HR, Finance, and Operations roles across Minneapolis–Saint Paul and nationwide.
What industries do you serve?
We work across a variety of industries including Healthcare, Finance, Retail & E-commerce, Professional Services, Private Equity, and more.
How fast can you fill a contract role?
Many contract placements happen within days to two weeks. After a Day 1 discovery call, Celarity presents top options within 2–5 days, with interviews and selection typically completed within one to two weeks.
How does your hiring process work?
Celarity starts with a discovery call to understand your role and goals, then sources, screens, and presents top candidates. We coordinate interviews, handle references, manage onboarding and compliance, and provide ongoing support and weekly check-ins throughout the engagement.
What happens if a contract placement doesn't work out?
Celarity’s staffing guarantee means if a placement doesn’t work out within the first five working days, Celarity refunds up to 40 hours of time and replaces the candidate at no additional cost.
Do you place talent at companies of all sizes?
Yes — Celarity places contract talent at startups, mid-sized firms, and enterprise organizations across a wide range of industries and team sizes.
How do you source and screen candidates?
Celarity leverages an extensive network built over 30+ years, referrals, and proactive recruiting. Every candidate goes through skill assessments, cultural fit evaluation, and reference checks before being presented.
How do you ensure candidates are a strong match?
Celarity takes time to understand your business, team dynamics, and goals — ensuring every candidate aligns not just on skills but on culture and long-term fit.
Can we interview candidates before making a decision?
Yes — you’ll always have the opportunity to meet and evaluate candidates before moving forward with a placement.
Do you conduct background and reference checks?
Reference checks are standard on every placement. Background checks are available upon request.
What is the difference between a contractor and a full-time employee?
A contractor works for a defined period on Celarity’s payroll — Celarity handles taxes, benefits, and compliance. A full-time employee is a permanent hire on your own payroll with full company benefits and long-term employment. Contract staffing is ideal when you need flexibility, speed, or specialized skills for a defined period.
Can a contract placement convert to a full-time hire?
Yes — Celarity’s contract-to-hire option lets you bring on a professional as a contractor first, then convert them to a full-time employee if it’s a strong fit. The conversion fee decreases based on hours worked.
