Experience the difference Axcet’s talent management consulting can make in building a stronger, more loyal workforce.

Creating effective job descriptions is more than just listing duties; it’s about clarity, compliance and precision. Axcet HR Solutions specializes in crafting job descriptions that clearly outline essential duties and requirements while helping employers make informed hiring decisions, communicate expectations effectively and defend against wrongful termination claims.

With increasing pay transparency laws—especially for remote roles—compliance is more critical than ever. Axcet ensures your job postings meet legal requirements, including those outlined by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).

Our talent management consulting services include helping you create job descriptions that are both compliant and compelling, so you attract the right candidates while protecting your business from potential legal risks.

Inconsistent or inappropriate interviewing practices can lead to unintentional discrimination in the hiring process. Axcet HR Solutions helps prevent these risks by providing standardized interview questions and comprehensive training for your team. 

Our talent management consultants ensure that every interview is legally compliant, relevant and fair, enabling you to assess candidates consistently.

We train your managers on the essential dos and don’ts of interviewing, helping them avoid language that could be misconstrued as discriminatory or harassing. As HR practices evolve, Axcet ensures your interviewing process remains up-to-date, compliant and effective, so you can confidently find the right fit for your team.

While offer letters are not legally required, they are a critical step in the hiring process, serving as an official invitation for candidates to join your organization. However, if not carefully crafted, offer letters can unintentionally become enforceable employment contracts, exposing your business to potential legal risks.

Axcet’s talent management consulting services include tailored offer letters that not only position your organization favorably with job candidates but also protect you from legal exposure. These letters can be easily integrated into our applicant tracking system for seamless electronic sending and signing.

With Axcet, you can be confident that your offer letters are both compelling and compliant, making the transition from candidate to employee as smooth and secure as possible.

  • Employment verification
  • Education verification
  • Industry-specific checks
  • Drug testing through certified labs

We are small, and as such, rarely in the eye of a payroll services company. Axcet works with our multiple entities. I want to focus on our business, and they focus on HR for me. Because we are small, I really don't want to have a 'personal' disagreement about PTO or vacation pay, so I set the guidelines, and Axcet manages them, which I love.

We really appreciate the work you are doing for our tradeshow and exhibit display company. The fun part is we get at least an email a day, phone calls every day, and we see the commercials on tv for something that you have taken care of for us last year. (And, of course, it is in the capable IRS hands now.)

Thanks for making this so easy for us.

Turning our admin, payroll, benefits, 401K, workers' compensation, etc., over to Axcet HR has been one of the best decisions that we've ever made: that was back in 2001! We've had 21 great years with Axcet and hope to have 21 more! Axcet has saved us time and LOTS of money but most of all, Axcet HR has allowed us to focus on running our business...because we know, day in, and day out that Axcet has our back!

Axcet has helped us find affordable benefits for our 15 employees. Being a small firm, it was hard to find various health insurance options. It is nice knowing that we have someone with HR knowledge. It is good to get another persons opinion when we are having employee issues.

I burned through a couple of "payroll companies" before I found Axcet. I have yet to encounter anyone at this company that hasn't been friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. Calls are returned amazingly fast and problems are solved without having to make any other calls. This is truly a great company and stellar business partner!

With all the changing rules and regulations we face as employers, I was always afraid of a "Gotcha!" moment. We've been with Axcet over 10 years now and I sleep well at night knowing all our HR is done right. They make it all so easy. Our payroll is accurate, we are legal and OSHA compliant in every area, and my employees love their benefits. Our team at Axcet is more than just a good vendor, they are a great partner!

We had tried two other PEOs. Both of which we left after the first year. The level of service that we were accustomed to with Axcet was not there, so we came back to Axcet truly because of the excellent service we always received. Everyone at Axcet would make us feel like we were their only client, like they were sitting there waiting for our call, always friendly and ready to help.

We started working with Axcet in 2018 and they have dramatically increased our internal productivity. We used to spend hours on payroll, HR, benefits, taxes, etc. each week and that is no longer the case. Prior to Axcet, we worked with two other payroll companies and is was a complete mess. Working with Axcet is like having a robust and efficient internal HR department. They have solutions to every problem and we no longer feel lost trying to navigate the payroll landscape. If you want to streamline your business and get out of the HR and payroll weeds, then go with Axcet.
