The team was professional and provided excellent customer service. We were able to open our doors with not only a full complement of staff but one that met our high standards of performance. We are grateful for the help that The Source and Recruit Company provided, and take pride in the team they were able to help us recruit.”

  • "As the owner of DJ's Tree Service, I am immensely pleased with the Fractional Recruiting services provided by Matthew and Daniel from The Source and Recruit Company. Hiring Jenn as our Office Manager has been a standout success, and I couldn't be happier with my decision. The entire process exceeded my expectations in both efficiency and organization, which speaks volumes about the quality of service and communication I received. The candidates presented were of very high quality, distinctively better than other sources we have access to. I found the verbal and written updates regarding the project to be clear and thorough, ensuring I was well-informed at every step. Though I don't have much experience with other agencies, I am thoroughly satisfied with the outcome and the performance was genuinely outstanding. It was definitely worth the investment, and I would not hesitate to engage your services again for future recruitment needs. Thank you for making this a remarkable experience!"
