What is Direct Hire?
Direct Hire is a recruitment process whereby the employer directly hires the candidates for permanent positions, without using temporary or contract-based roles. The result of such hiring is usually full integration into the organization, including the employee being given benefits and long-term job security. This form of hiring is common for those positions that require specific skills and in industries where they seek to invest in long-term employee relationships.
How HR teams use this term
HR teams usually use Direct Hire when they write policies, explain employee communication, review payroll or leave records, or keep employee data clean in an HRMS.
