Contract Staffing
Our contract staffing solutions provide businesses with flexible workforce options for defined periods. Employees are hired by DAKO Group and placed at client companies until project needs are met. This service allows clients to scale teams efficiently while maintaining operational agility, with potential extensions or direct hires based on performance and requirements.
Contract-to-Hire
The contract-to-hire program offers a 30-90 day trial period for candidates placed at client companies. This solution enables mutual evaluation before permanent hiring decisions, reducing risk for both employers and employees. Clients benefit from vetted candidates who may transition to direct employment after successful trial completion.

Direct placement services connect clients with candidates for immediate, long-term roles. We handle candidate vetting, interviews, and negotiations to ensure seamless hiring. This service is ideal for businesses seeking to fill critical positions without interim contractual arrangements, prioritizing quality and cultural fit.

I was hired in as a Warranty Parts Processor for VWGoA Warranty Parts Return Center in Auburn Hills, MI this week. And the treatment has been nothing but pleasant and rewarding. The environment is productive and welcoming. The teamwork unrivaled. Raymond Hobbs took very good care of me. I accepted the offer immediately. Time and care went into my hiring transition that was appreciated. Jason and Barbara made my offer even easier to accept. These names are important. Work is fun, now. Its not work. Let them do this for you.

I did not have a good experience with either of my representatives here. This company does not stand behind their contractors at all. Their internal churn was high as well, employees didn't stick around very long. I was so relieved when my contract was over.

This place is unprofessional. They will not pay you correctly. Beware! Their practices are illegal and Michigan Labor and EEOC will be informed.
Jennifer in payroll will mess your check up and lie and cheat you out of money and place you on speaker for her colleagues to listen to her belittle you. Do not go here. Use a more reputable agency like Addecco, Kelly Services, Pontoon, Select Staffing, Randstad or OfficeTeam. Not this group of scammers and idiots.
