Why RHO Hiring comes first for staffing in Sterling Heights

Sterling Heights has a large industrial base along Van Dyke Ave and Mound Road: auto and defense suppliers, machining and fabrication, and plenty of warehouses to keep them stocked. Those floors require employees who arrive ready to work on the line. That's why RHO prepares workers for your site's standards, screens them for reliability and conscientiousness, and trains them in safety before day one. Every client receives their own management team and owners who work with you directly, whether you're located in Macomb County or right next door to our office.

• Locally owned, not a franchise

  RHO is owned by Vadym Makovey, George Makovey and Jackson Siersma and operated out of their own office in Southfield. There is no franchise office between you and the owners.

• The owners work with you

  Owners stay with clients from the first call to the shifts to come. You know who's working with you.

• A fast answer and a quick quote

  Call. You will be called back by a manager, typically within a couple of hours. Quoting is fast, allowing you to schedule your next shift.

• We learn your floor first

  Before anyone starts, RHO studies your facility's flow, shifts and volume so that the order fits the work.

• Workers matched to the job

  We match people to the site. Pickers and packers to pick lines. Operators to equipment. Loading teams to docks.

• Screened and trained on safety

  Employees are screened for reliability and conscientiousness, and are trained on safety prior to starting work.

• Ready for your site's rules

  We prepare workers for your site standards before they arrive on site. The first hour goes to work, not to questions.

• A management team on your account

  Our dedicated RHO management team remains on the account after the first shift and resolves problems fast.

• Day, night and weekend shifts

  We provide day, night, weekend and high volume shift coverage so you get qualified people on second shift and Saturday as well.

• Plans for peak season

  Recurring staffing plans for peak seasons, so the busy months don't start from zero.

• More than filling shifts

  Recruitment and staffing, workforce management, workforce analytics and fully managed staffing, when you want more than just bodies.

• About 33 minutes from Sterling Heights

  Our office is in Southfield, 19.1 miles away, and open for visits by appointment, Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

According to RHO's own stats: over 100 employees on assignment throughout Michigan, 48 large facilities serviced with our partners, over 200 commercial accounts and over 7 years in business supplying workers. The figures include RHO's direct clients and the clients it shares with its sister companies.

Locally owned, not a franchise

Several of the best-known names in staffing are national networks, and some of them work through franchised offices. RHO is neither. Vadym Makovey, George Makovey and Jackson Siersma own RHO Hiring LLC and we operate out of our own office located at 18000 W 9 Mile Rd in Southfield. That means the people who take your call are the people answering for your account.

That is the difference we believe separates us from others. The owners will come out to see how your floor operates, help determine who is going to fit your floor and hear about a problem directly from you instead of reading it in a report weeks later. Because the company is theirs, every account is theirs too, and so is every shift we pick up.

What direct ownership means on your floor

• The people who learned your floor stay on board after the first shift.
• Decisions regarding your account are made here in Southfield by individuals you know.
• A problem goes directly to someone who can help, and your problem is remedied quickly by the management team.
• Office hours are available for booking, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. We will meet face-to-face.
• One office, three companies: our sister companies, RCO Cleaning (commercial cleaning) and RMO Mitigation & Restoration (water, fire and mold restoration), work from the same address.
