Why Entech is Southeast Michigan’s Best Choice for Gig and On-Demand Staffing

Posted on December 11, 2025

In the staffing world there are a wide variety of needs. Some employers are looking for long term direct staff members to join their team.  Others need fast, reliable help for a single shift, weekend, or short-term project. There are many services out there catering specifically to that “gig work” style of hiring, but what they may not realize is that Entech delivers the same on-demand speed with the added benefit of personalized service and local expertise.

Gig Workers vs. Temporary Employees: What’s the Difference?

There are subtle differences in the employment classifications between gig work employees and temporary staff. So before we dive into what makes Entech the premier “Gig Work” service of Southeast Michigan, let’s understand what that term actually means.

Temporary Employees are looking for ongoing work opportunities, even if they are short term. They may be students on break, workers preferring flexible schedules, or candidates exploring different career paths. These roles usually last more than one shift and can span days, weeks, or months.

Gig Workers/On-Demand Workers are motivated by supplemental income and flexible scheduling. They choose short-notice, short-duration shifts — often just one night or a weekend — based on their availability. These are not long-term career placements, but quick opportunities to earn additional income.

Why Entech Outperforms Gig-Work Platforms

The challenge of finding gig workers is the last minute nature of gig opportunities. Clients like the ability to place a staffing request and have workers show up the next day or weekend. In order to achieve that quick turnaround time staffing companies need to have qualified employees already in their repertoire, and quick communication capabilities to get the job done efficiently. While gig worker specific companies specialize in this recruitment of contingent workers, what customers often sacrifice is customer service. These are larger corporations without the personal touch of an assigned recruiter or representative you can trust and communicate with. That’s where Entech comes in.

With Entech, you can have your cake and eat it, too. We are constantly recruiting for workers of all classifications and logging them in our proprietary database so when a demand arises, we have a pool of candidates ready to go. With this software, Zenople, we have created an app where pre-qualified candidates can easily log in and view current job openings. There is a function to self-assign shifts as they arrive, making filling your shift workforce a breeze.

Unlike national gig platforms, Entech is a brick-and-mortar staffing firm with recruiters physically located in the Metro Detroit business community. Yes we can communicate quickly and efficiently through our app. But we also have a team of in house recruiters ready to help employees and employers alike find the perfect match. We build trusted relationships with each of our partners so you are never stuck googling how to get someone on the phone. We are real people, really living and working in the Metro-Detroit business community. You get the speed of an on-demand gig platform plus the customer service of a boutique staffing partner.
