BigFoot Staffing is a staffing and recruiting company in Portland, Oregon that builds long-term hiring partnerships through tailor-fit workforce solutions. We staff two primary groups: light industrial roles (warehouse, production, assembly, forklift, packaging, general labor, mechanics) and white-glove recruiting for operations management, engineering, sales, HR, accounting, and administrative positions.
What services do you offer?+
Four core services: Staffing for temporary and contract positions, Recruiting for permanent placements, Payrolling to manage employment administration and reduce HR burden, and Candidate Management to streamline the entire hiring process from sourcing to onboarding.
How are you different from other staffing agencies?+
We use a proprietary S.Q.U.A.T.C.H. principles framework, a human-first philosophy, and a highly selective candidate presentation process. Instead of flooding clients with resumes, we take the time to deeply understand your hiring needs and only present the most relevant candidates. This saves considerable screening time and reduces overall hiring costs.
What is the S.Q.U.A.T.C.H. framework?+
It stands for Safety, Quality, Uniqueness, Agility, Transparency, Collaboration, and Human-First. These principles guide our entire approach to talent acquisition, from safety training and accident prevention to open communication, enduring partnerships, and putting people at the center of everything we do.
How do you save employers time and money?+
By being highly selective when presenting candidates, we eliminate the hours your team spends reviewing unqualified resumes. Our unique pricing model is competitive with traditional recruiting and with in-house teams, and our focus on culture fit reduces turnover and repeat hiring cycles.
