A contract-to-permanent employee is optimal for companies that want a low-risk option for hiring a full-time employee. Some benefits of hiring contract-to-permanent are:

• It ensures your money isn’t being invested in the wrong candidate, maximizing your company’s profitability.
• It gives you time to assess whether the candidate is a good fit, both technically and personality-wise.
• It allows an employee to get on board quickly, rather than get tied up in internal hiring processes.
