The HR Office offers structured hiring process assistance that replaces that chaos with a professional system. We maintain a curated applicant pool, post job ads, conduct initial interview screenings, and deliver a qualified shortlist directly to you. You stay the employer; we handle the process behind the scenes.

Built for Small Business Owners
Professional Hiring Help Without the Overhead of a Full-Time HR Department

The HR Office was built specifically for business owners who need expert hiring process assistance without the cost of an in-house team. We work with you on a custom, a la carte, or retainer basis so you only pay for what your business actually needs. Initial consultations are always free, giving you a no-risk opportunity to talk through your hiring challenges and find out exactly how we can help.
Common Questions About Our Hiring Services
Answers to Your Recruitment Consulting Questions

  • Is The HR Office a staffing agency or a recruiting firm?

    The HR Office is a consulting agency, not a staffing firm or recruiting agency. That distinction matters. We assist your business with the hiring process, including job ad placement, candidate screenings, and delivering shortlists, but you remain the direct employer at all times. We never act as a third-party employer or place workers on a temporary basis. Our role is to give your business the professional structure and support it needs to make strong, direct hires on its own terms.
  • What is the applicant pool, and how does it work for my business?

    The applicant pool is a curated database of candidates that The HR Office maintains on behalf of Georgia employers. Individuals join through a dedicated intake form, and we manage that database so that when a client has an open position, we already have a head start on qualified candidates. We conduct initial screenings and deliver a shortlist of the most suitable applicants directly to you, saving you the time and effort of sorting through unqualified responses on your own.
  • Do you handle background checks and drug screenings as part of the hiring process?

    Yes. The HR Office coordinates both drug screenings and background checks as part of the hiring support process. We have established vendor access to manage these steps efficiently, so you do not have to source those services separately. This makes our hiring process assistance a practical, all-in-one solution for small business owners who want a clean, professional process without juggling multiple providers.
  • Which areas in Georgia do you serve for in-person hiring support?

    For on-site and mobile services, The HR Office primarily serves Muscogee County and Marion County, including Columbus, Buena Vista, and Americus. Secondary service coverage extends across the West Central Georgia region. Consulting and digital services are available to any business located anywhere in Georgia, so even if you are outside the primary service area, you can still access professional hiring support through remote consultations.
  • How is hiring recruitment support priced?

    The HR Office does not publish set rates publicly, because every business has different needs. Pricing is structured on a custom, a la carte, or retainer basis depending on the scope of your hiring needs. The best first step is to schedule a free initial consultation, where we can assess your situation and put together a package that fits your budget and goals. There is no obligation and no cost for that first conversation.
  • Can you help a medical practice or healthcare office with its hiring process?

    Absolutely. Owner Lanie Morris has 20 years of HR experience specifically within the healthcare and medical office management sector, making The HR Office especially well-suited to support medical practices. Healthcare hiring comes with unique considerations around compliance, confidentiality, and staff qualifications. That background means we understand the specific pressures your practice faces and can build a hiring process that meets those standards from the start.
  • What certifications does the consultant at The HR Office hold?

    Lanie Morris holds three professional certifications: PHR (Professional in Human Resources) from the HR Certification Institute, SHRM-CP from the Society for Human Resource Management, and PROJ+ in Project Management. These credentials place her in a higher professional tier than most independent HR consultants. The PROJ+ certification means she applies structured project management discipline to the hiring process, which improves efficiency and reduces the common friction points that slow down small business recruiting.
