Candidate FAQs
HOW DOES A STAFFING AGENCY LIKE NEXEO WORK?
As a staffing agency, Nexeo works with many well-respected local businesses (clients) to provide quality workers to help supplement their current staff. Clients reach out to Nexeo requesting the people they need to fill open positions. Nexeo will then fill those positions with talented workers from its pool of talented associates.
Nexeo has hundreds of open positions at any given time and is constantly looking for talented people to fill those positions. Associates hired by Nexeo are Nexeo employees. They are paid by Nexeo, receive benefits through Nexeo, and their employment is managed by Nexeo. However, the work they perform is done with one of our clients. This means they will report to work at a client location, clock in/out at the client location, and their work will be monitored by the client. Which is then reported to Nexeo.
