How META Saves Employers Money

At the end of the day, your business and the people it helps are your bottom line — but it’s still important to do what’s best to help your financial bottom line too!

That’s why META makes saving time and money even easier for you when it comes to hiring, training, and retaining top talent for your business.

In today’s article, we’re going to look at some of the ways we help businesses boost their bottom line — and you can bet your bottom dollar we can help boost yours as well!

Accelerated Talent Acquisition

Your time is your money — and when you need to hire, we can save you both!

META has a variety of options to accelerate your hiring process.

Before you even reach out about recruitment, we’ve already been putting together a large talent pool of eager job seekers with specialities and skills in a wide variety of industries. Forget building your network one candidate at a time, when you connect with META you connect with hundreds of candidates at once!

Looking to connect with even more workers? META can also help you host and organize your very own Job Fair to put your team face to face with new talent. We also have a high-traffic Job Board, and a wide social media reach that can help promote your vacancies fast and effectively.

We can take care of gathering resumes, cover letters, and contact information. We’ll work with job seekers 1-on-1 to make sure they understand the application process and can even offer preliminary evaluations to help you narrow down your resume pile!

Our Workers Are Ready To Work

META has a number of programs for job seekers to help them work on their work-readiness!

Because we work closely with both employers and job seekers, we can get a better understanding of the needs of each. And when it comes to job seekers, we can help them with training, tools, and skills they need.

This means that we take time to vet our talent in order to ensure mutual success for both them and the employers we connect them to.

One example is our popular Helping Youth Prepare for Employment (HYPE) program, which offers youth ages 15-30 a 20-week intensive course on the soft skills they need to kickstart their careers, plus industry-specific training. After they’ve graduated, we pair them with employers who can qualify for a wage subsidy to help offset the costs of onboarding a new employee.

Some of our programs promote formal development, such as the Better Jobs Ontario program which helps fund education retraining programs for in-demand industries. Many of our job seekers have recently graduated with degrees, certifications, and licenses required to work in specialized fields.

We also offer WHMIS, Smart Serve, SafeTalk, and Safe Food Handling training!

With professionals that take their development seriously, you can trust that our talent can help you develop your business, too!

Funding Opportunities

Not only are META’s services free to employers, we can help you access financial resources to help grow your business as well!

One of our top programs is the Canada-Ontario Job Grant, which can offer as much as $10,000 to cover the costs of training new or existing staff. The funds are available to make many of the most highly-prized licenses and certifications more affordable — which makes your team more skilled for less!

As mentioned before, some of our programs also provide hourly wage reimbursement for short-term on-the-job training costs when you hire a new employee through META. These include an Apprenticeship Program which offers a $2000 signing bonus.

We can also help with the costs associated with workplace accommodations for workers with disabilities.

Conclusion

When you need to hire, you need META — and that’s the bottom line!
