Hassle-Free: How We Offer the Fast Track to Quality Hires
1. Connecting Business With Top-Tier Talent
There’s no shortage of jobs hiring in Calgary right now, especially in skilled trades and construction. You want to make sure top talent ends up at your company.
Hiring the wrong person can be expensive and we’re not just talking about dollars here. That’s why we focus on matching businesses with skilled trades, industrial labour, and professional talent that actually fit the role. Whether you’re looking for a new hire to get a job done fast or a long-term employee who will stick around, we help you cut the risk of a bad hire and keep your operations running smoothly.
As talented professionals actively search for “jobs near me hiring immediately” or “jobs hiring near me,” you don’t want your company to be left behind in the race.
2. An Extensive Network of Skilled Professionals
Our reach is massive 160,000+ skilled professionals across North America. That means when you need someone, we can usually find them faster than you can refresh your inbox. This network allows us to reduce hiring time, stay competitive, and adapt quickly, whether you’re filling a last-minute vacancy or building a whole new team. We understand the value of strategic hiring and helping you secure the right talent quickly so you can keep projects moving.
3. Flexible Solutions
When hiring in Calgary or anywhere else in Canada, cookie-cutter staffing just won’t cut it. You want extraordinary options. That’s why Matrix HR offers workforce solutions you can actually shape to fit your needs. We handle the heavy lifting so you can manage your time better and focus on the bigger picture.
a) Temporary Staffing
Need extra hands for a project or seasonal rush? We can scale your workforce quickly, sending skilled tradespeople, technical professionals, and industrial workers your way without long-term commitments. This flexibility helps you hire the right people for the moment without unnecessary costs.
b) Temp-to-Hire
Think of this as the “try before you buy” type of staffing. Our temp-to-hire program lets you see how someone works in the real world before making it official. It’s the easiest way to check skills, work ethic, and fit without the paperwork headache in case things don’t work out.
c) Direct Hire & Permanent Placement
Who doesn’t want a perfect match from day one? Our recruitment specialists handle the search, screening, and shortlisting so your hiring manager only sees quality candidates. This means less time sifting through applications and more time running your business. We know the time to fill in roles can get lengthy. Why not just let us take care of every recruitment metric that keeps your business efficient?
We make sure your workforce is scalable with cost-effective hiring at its finest. Our team’s always ready to deliver—no unnecessary risk, no wasted time and productivity.
4. On-Site Compliance & Training
There are just some industries where safety isn’t optional. In this case, you can’t afford to take shortcuts. We make sure every worker is job-ready and meets strict safety standards. It’s not just about compliance. It’s about protecting your people and your reputation while ensuring your company remains an attractive place to work for potential candidates.
a) Our Commitment to Safety
We work in high-risk industries, so safety is a pillar of everything we do. From construction and oil & gas to manufacturing and shipbuilding, we take a proactive approach throughout the recruitment process and beyond:
- COR-certified in Alberta, BC, and Saskatchewan
- Industry-specific safety training for every worker
- Compliance with provincial and federal regulations
- Regular risk management and safety audits
- PPE programs and workplace safety guidelines
b) Regulatory Compliance & Certification
Every candidate we send is vetted for:
- Required licences and certifications
- Workplace safety training (WHMIS, Fall Protection, Confined Space, etc.)
- Drug and alcohol testing as required
- Workers’ compensation and liability coverage in multiple provinces
- Full compliance with employment standards and labour laws
A good process should help you make more informed decisions and evaluate talent more effectively—and that’s exactly what we do.
5. A Superior Approach to Security & Compliance
Got projects that require next-level clearances? We’ve got you covered. Our team follows strict protocols for Controlled Goods compliance and Secret-level clearances to optimize the entire hiring process. This means:
- End-to-end security screening
- Pre-clearance checks for regulated industries
- Fully compliant staffing for sensitive projects
Our hiring practices are designed to deliver qualified candidates every time.
6. Employer of Record Services
If you want to hire in Canada but don’t want the legal and tax headaches, our Employer of Record (EOR) service can take care of it all for you. We handle payroll, compliance, benefits, and contracts, so you can fully focus on running your business instead.
An EOR acts as the legal employer for your workers and manages the following to ensure the process takes less time:
- Payroll and wage disbursement
- Tax remittance
- Employee benefits
- Workers’ compensation and compliance
- HR paperwork and contracts
With Matrix HR as your EOR, you can take on projects in Canada without setting up a local entity and you’ll meet all compliance requirements in government, construction, and industrial sectors.
7. 100% Canadian-Owned
Based in Calgary, Alberta, we’re proud to be a Canadian company with operations across the country and into the USA. We understand the local market because we’ve always been part of it.
Whether it’s jobs in Calgary or staffing across provinces, we offer the best recruitment services so those roles get filled in swiftly. Our focus is on efficient hiring, ensuring a positive candidate experience, and streamlining the interview process.
We know the right questions to ask that help you attract top talent, make smart hiring decisions, and reduce time wasted on mismatched hires.
