With the advent of the technological age, the workplace has also rapidly evolved. Jobs nowadays require not only an undergraduate college diploma, but also skills such as excellent command of the English language, basic computer skills, and ability to be a team player. Such skills are in demand nowadays, not only in highly-specialized job categories such as education, science, and IT, but also in Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) jobs.

Such career opportunities are offered by staff leasing companies who recruit their employees based on qualifications posted by a client for a specific staff outsourcing project. These staff leasing companies are responsible for leasing employees to the said client, at the same time taking care of the selection, recruitment, and managerial details of the staff outsourcing project. The staff leasing companies act as a staff agency which gathers employee profiles and sorts them out for a particular staff outsourcing project. Staff outsourcing is a popular form of business nowadays, since leasing employees from a remote destination enables the client to save time, money, and manpower when it comes to operating a certain business process.

The client is also relieved of managerial duties such as HR and operations management, which is fully provided for by the staff leasing companies. Furthermore, staff outsourcing also allows the client to selectively lease employees who possess a certain level of expertise not readily available in the client's sphere of local operations. Because of the staff leasing company's ability to act as a staff agency, they can easily supply the client with a team of employees who can effectively fulfill the business process to be outsourced. Business processes can be in the form of creative services such as graphic design, Flash design, or creative writing. Clients are also presented by the leasing companies with the option of leasing employees in a part-time, full-time, or contractual basis. The staff leasing companies' dual role as a staff agency also allows it to monitor and control the attendance and attitude of the leased employees according to the client's standards.

With its distinct cost-saving advantages and client-friendly features, staff outsourcing is an excellent form of conducting business operations in the information age.
