Consulting Direct provides contract staffing, temp-to-perm hiring, direct-hire search, Recruitment as a Service, and professional consulting.
Based on the real estate industry's Multiple Listing Service, or MLS, MLSA is a network-based staffing model where partner agencies share job and candidate data and keep every dollar they earn. It gives staffing firms a neutral place to post open roles, connect qualified candidates with more opportunities, and collaborate when one agency has the job and another has the talent. Participating agencies maintain their relationships and agree to placement terms directly. MLSA takes 0% of the agreed fee.
No. MLSA is a collaboration network for staffing and recruiting firms. It connects agencies without replacing their client or candidate relationships.
A market rate is the current, data-driven pay or bill rate for a specific job role, reflecting what the market is actually paying right now, not a stale annual survey average. MarketRates AI derives market rates by aggregating publicly available data from more than 300 sources and refreshing standardized benchmarks every 30 days, using machine learning to normalize and classify job titles across more than 15 million job records and 14+ industries. This combination of pay-rate and bill-rate intelligence, standardized job matching, global market coverage, predictive analytics, and trend forecasting gives staffing agencies, MSPs, and enterprise workforce teams a reliable way to benchmark contingent labor pricing.
The platform combines public labor-market and engagement data, staffing-market observations, licensed third-party sources, partner datasets, historical data, and our TalentTurks network of in-country market experts who provide validation on our data.
MarketRates AI refreshes its data every 30 days and provides workforce intelligence across more than 140 countries.
