What IS Temp-To-Direct Hire?
The temporary-to-direct hire model involves bringing employees on board on a temporary, trial basis with the option to extend a full-time offer once the trial period expires. Employers typically choose this hiring strategy when:
- They want to ensure a cultural fit or assess performance before hiring an employee full-time
- They’re budgeting for full-time equivalents (FTEs) later in the year
- Long-term headcount approval is uncertain
- Flexibility is a focus for team expansion
OUR APPROACH
At Alexander Technology Group, we’re dedicated to helping you find the perfect match. Here’s what you can expect when you partner with us for your temporary-to-direct hire needs.

THOROUGH INTAKE & NEEDS ANALYSIS
Before we present you with a single candidate, you’ll meet with your dedicated ATG recruiter to discuss your hiring challenges and what you’re looking for.

SOURCE & SCREEN CANDIDATES
Once we know your goals for the placement, we tap into our talent network to find candidates with long-term potential who also meet your short-term needs.

BEGINNING THE TRIAL PERIOD
Once your new temporary employees are onboarded, they enter a trial period with clearly defined timelines and expectations.

TRANSITION TO PERMANENT PLACEMENT
For hires who successfully complete the trial period, we’ll help oversee the transition from temporary to permanent employment.
