People Who Love Opti Staffing Group
“I am pleased to recommend Andrew Watson with whom I have worked to assist our company in filling very difficult positions within our organization.
“Although I have worked with Andrew for only a few short months, I have found him to be an important resource for expanding our business with talented people. Andrew invested the time to get to know our company, learn about the positions, and eventually come to an understanding of management’s expectations. Once given an assignment, Andrew is tenacious in finding the right candidate, bringing the search to a prompt and successful conclusion.
“I highly recommend Andrew as a search consultant for your company.”
“Opti Staffing Group has been invaluable in helping us expand our business. We have tried to use other avenues, such as Jobdango and the newspaper, to find qualified maintenance mechanics to support our growing metal recycling business with very limited results.
“Since we teamed up with Opti Staffing, we have been able to get people that are qualified in the skill sets that we need and are ready to go to work. We will continue to use this valuable service to make our business grow. Thanks guys!”
“Being relatively new to the area, using Opti eliminates my having to drive all over trying to find places that are hiring. I find that the pay is the same as getting hired directly with a company. Nathan has been great with helping me find the best-fitting jobs for my needs. It seems they genuinely have an interest in my success.”
“Andrew spent time visiting my facility and getting to know our specific needs. He listened and then actively searched to find the right fit for me and my staff in a temp-to-hire position. Andrew showed a genuine desire to help place the right person who could thrive in my business. I truly appreciate his efforts and attitude, and for that he’ll be the only one to fill any staffing needs I have. ”
“I have been working with Opti Staffing for almost five years now. I manage an up-and-coming industrial construction company in the Seattle area and we specialize in EVERYTHING. With the wide variety of specialized skills that we require such as precision alignment, certified welder/fabricators, Millwrights, multi-craft industrial maintenance technicians, etc., one of our biggest challenges is finding people with the required skills and the personality/character to work well as part of our team.
“The one thing that sets Opti Staffing apart from other agencies that I have used is their consistent ability to put multiple strong resumes in front of me in a timely manner whenever I have a job opening. That is what I need in a staffing agency and what I get with Opti Staffing.
“I have worked with many wonderful associates at Opti but have been working closely with Jewel Koury there for some time now. Jewel has been in the industry for many years, she is a tremendous asset to Opti and the clients that she serves. My experience is that she can think well outside the box, has the patience and understanding to deal with constantly fluctuating client demands, understands what the customers need, is diligent, a consistent and effective communicator, and unequaled in her ability to screen and put together a list of skilled professional candidates that match my demands. It is nice to interview several candidates back to back instead of weeks apart, especially when you needed someone yesterday!
“In my business, as like many, there is little available time when you are a growing company to search for new hires, Opti Staffing takes that burden off my shoulders and my cost for temp-to-hires is typically less than my fully loaded labor burden for my other full-time employees.
“I found something that works, makes my life easier and is helping to grow my business so I am sticking with it.”
