We need you to be able to use all of this acumen and experience to successfully find profitable contracting opportunities for our staffing company.

 

Who we are

We are a GSA Advantage contract holder. We are a certified Federal 8(a), SDB, and a small business. We specialize in providing Clerical and Administrative temporary contract employees to the Federal Government. Our web site is www.newlinkstaffing.com.

 

Our problem is the fact that what we sell, Clerical and Administrative Support, is not purchased by itself by the Federal Government. You must find long-term temporary Clerical and Administrative Support contract employee opportunities for us.

 

RFQs posted on Federal contracting web sites such as Fedbizopps are found to be lacking for us because we seek temporary employee placements that are greater than six months in duration. You must find opportunities not listed in Fedbizopps.

 

These opportunities can be located anywhere in the US. Whether it is a situation where a Government employee is leaving and there is a need to replace that person with a temporary employee, another contractor's contract termination forces the Gov't to find a successor contractor, or it is a project sold to the Federal government by an engineering firm or a management consultant, there are requirements for general clerks, database specialists, and secretaries. These are the contract employees that we specialize in hiring, managing and supporting. Our SDB status will aid you in finding new contracts.

 

Your responsibilities include finding the opportunity, nationwide, and bidding on it, subject to pricing approval. That's it. We provide the rest: employee hiring, contract invoicing, and employee management.

 

This is an independent contractor position. The right person could work out of his/her home, keeping in contact through phone, fax and email.

 

Compensation:

Draw against commission. Commission is one third of gross profit per contract employee placed.

 

Example: Average actual contract employee placement compensation equals approximately $100 per week for the life of the placement. Our goal is to place a maximum of 60 contract employees over the next 12 months. If for example, you can provide five new long-term placements each month for the next year, your compensation for the year could total approximately $156,000.

 

You would build upon this income each successive year. Because we specialize in placements greater than six months, if 50 of your original 60 placements lasts a complete second year, you would be remunerated approximately $260,000 for them. (50 placements times $100 times 52 weeks.) Additional placements made the second year would add to that sum. And so on.

 

If you have the proper experience and you can find Federal Clerical/Administrative temporary positions outside of Fedbizopps, email your resume to us immediately at corpaccess@aol.com
