We are a boutique, independent, woman-owned, Colorado company, founded in 1979. We have one office in the heart of Denver between downtown and Cherry Creek, but serve client companies throughout the Denver Metro area and Colorado.
We pride ourselves in our dedicated and experienced recruiting a team – they are all degreed professionals who have purposefully made recruiting their career choice. We have very low turnover, so there is a good chance that the person you worked with last time is still available to help you. Our staff prides itself on delivering recruiting and staffing services that are tailored to each of our unique client companies. We care about developing a long-term partnership with our clients; not just a one-time solution.
In the end, we know it comes down to delivering the right people to your company – direct hire and temp-to-hire candidates or temporary staff who make an immediate difference to your business. For direct hire and temp-to-hire searches, we select only our top candidates to present to you. If we don’t think a candidate is an excellent fit for your company and your open position, we will not send you their resume. For your temporary needs, our goal is to hire the very best so that you remember us the next time you need a temp.
