Staff Augmentation

04 Questions

Staff augmentation: your questions.

What is staff augmentation?

It means adding external professionals to your existing team for a defined period. They work with your team and under your direction, while we handle the employment arrangements.

How is it different from recruitment?

Recruitment ends when a permanent employee joins your payroll. With staff augmentation the person stays on RAST's arrangements, which gives you flexibility and less long-term commitment.

How quickly can someone start?

Timelines depend on the skills requested. We give you a realistic estimate once we understand the scope.

Can we hire an augmented team member permanently?

Yes. Where the fit is right, we can agree a conversion route so you keep a person you already trust.
