We focus on CDL and Non-CDL driving positions. Primarily Class A, Class B and Non-CDL including positions requiring various CDL endorsements. However, our parent company Tributary Staffing focuses on Light Industrial, Hospitality, Clerical and Event positions. You can find their website at tributarystaffing.com to explore these market segments and see how we can contribute to your success.

We offer three types of services to our Clients. Temporary, Temp-to-Perm and Direct Hire. Temporary positions last anywhere from four hours to several months. Temp-to-Perm positions start out as temporary and give the Client time to evaluate the individual and their work ethic but plan to make the person a direct hire at a future date. Direct Hire positions will go directly to your payroll and qualify for your benefits etc.

This is a tricky question! Have we found the perfect person for a client within one hour of their call…Yes! But have we also had a Client call and we had to tell them we didn’t have anyone available that day…. unfortunately, Yes.  It all depends on the open position and who we have available at that time. The more notice Clients give us the greater probability we will fill that position with an excellent candidate quickly. We can also assure you that every candidate will be pre-qualified with regards to experience, skill set, availability and of course, be in compliance with all state and federal laws including the FMCSA and DOT.
