Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What industries do you support in Alabama? Holland Sharpe is a trusted staffing and recruiting agency in Kentucky specializing in manufacturing, construction, and skilled trades staffing solutions. We support companies in automotive, food & beverage, plastics, metals, packaging, building products, and commercial and industrial construction.
Q2: What types of roles do you fill in Alabama? We deliver staffing solutions for the full spectrum of roles: high-volume production associates, machine operators, forklift drivers, skilled trades professionals, maintenance technicians, engineers, and leadership positions. Whether scaling quickly with production teams or filling hard-to-find technical roles, we provide the right talent when you need it.
Q3: How quickly can you fill positions? Holland Sharpe combines speed with precision. Temp and contract workers often start within 24–48 hours once screening is complete, while specialized roles (maintenance, engineering, leadership) typically take 1–3 weeks. We deliver dependable talent without sacrificing quality.
Q4: How does your pricing structure work? Our pricing is transparent and competitive among staffing agencies in Kentucky. For temp and contract staffing, we apply an hourly bill rate based on the position’s pay rate, covering taxes, benefits, and workers’ comp. For direct hire recruiting, we charge a percentage of annual salary, aligned with engineering, leadership, or technical pay ranges. The pay rate remains the core driver of cost in both models.
Q5: What if a candidate doesn’t work out? Every placement comes with our staffing agency guarantee. For contract/temp-to-hire staffing, you only pay for hours worked—no minimum fees. If a candidate isn’t a fit, you are not charged beyond their time on-site, and we provide a replacement at the same bill rate. For direct hire, we offer a unique prorated guarantee not commonly provided by other staffing agencies in Kentucky.
Q6: Can you manage seasonal or large-volume hiring? Absolutely. We specialize in large-scale staffing solutions for manufacturers and construction companies in Kentucky. Whether you need 10 production associates for attrition, 100 for a seasonal ramp-up, or 50–100 skilled trades professionals for a large project, we deliver. This capability gives clients the confidence to say “yes” to new opportunities and contract bids without workforce limits.
Q7: Do you offer on-site support for larger operations? Yes. For high-volume accounts, we deliver on-site staffing support in Kentucky—scheduling, timekeeping, workforce coordination, and safety orientations. Our recruiters prioritize face-to-face interaction with supervisors to ensure candidate alignment with your culture, making us a workforce solutions agency, not just a temp partner.
Q8: How do you reduce turnover in high-turnover roles? Holland Sharpe reduces turnover through a focus on cultural alignment, candidate relationships, and thorough recruiting processes. We meet face-to-face with clients to understand their workforce needs, build long-term rapport with candidates so placements improve their work life, and screen and interview thoroughly before submission. This results in employees who perform better, stay longer, and strengthen your operations.
Q9: How do you find candidates other agencies fail to reach? Many staffing agencies in Kentucky rely on job boards alone. Others use deep local recruiting and referrals and limit partnerships, allowing us to attract active candidates from local competition. Paired with face-to-face recruiting, community engagement, and cultural insight, we access talent that other agencies can’t reach.
Q10: What is your screening and vetting process? Our screening is among the most rigorous among Kentucky staffing agencies. We start with a phone screen, followed by one-on-one interviews verifying skills, certifications, and work history, assess cultural fit, perform background and drug checks, and conduct safety compliance reviews. Personal, face-to-face evaluations build confidence that candidates are reliable, skilled, and aligned.
Q11: Do you serve small businesses as well as large manufacturers? Absolutely. Holland Sharpe is a flexible staffing agency in Kentucky, supporting small shops, mid-sized companies, and Fortune 500 firms. Whether you need one hard-to-fill technical role or a full production line of associates, we scale solutions—temp production staffing, skilled trades recruiting, maintenance, engineering placements—to keep Kentucky employers competitive and growing.
Q12: How do you ensure safety and compliance? Safety is central to our manufacturing staffing services in Kentucky. We verify training and certifications, provide safety orientations, and align with OSHA and site-specific requirements. While safety and compliance are ultimately the customer’s responsibility, we actively partner by preparing candidates and reinforcing safety culture so you get a safer, more compliant workforce from day one.

Staffing should be straightforward—and placements should last. With Holland Sharpe, employers across Alabama gain dependable, safety-focused workers and personalized support.
