Staffing agency, recruiter, or temp agency — which do you need?
These get used interchangeably, but they buy different things. The distinction decides who you should call.
- Pharmacy staffing agency / temp agency
- Places pharmacy professionals with a pharmacy on a temporary or ongoing basis. The agency employs or contracts them and handles their credentialing and payment; the pharmacy pays for coverage rather than adding an employee.
- Pharmacy recruiter / headhunter
- Finds a candidate for the pharmacy to hire directly onto its own payroll, typically for a one-time placement fee. Used when the role is permanent.
- Temp-to-perm
- An arrangement where someone works on assignment first and can convert to a direct hire, so both sides can assess fit before a permanent commitment.
