What People Say About Us
"City Personnel employs recruiters that understand the broad qualifications of jobs within varied industries. The agency does not flood our company with resumes but sends only qualified candidates that meet the company's qualifications and expectations."
"City Personnel is staffed by real, caring, and dedicated people who make the herculean task of finding work into a straightforward and reliable journey. They are quick to communicate, polite, and above all exceptional in their service. I cannot recommend them highly enough."
"It was an amazing experience working with Dawn. I reached out to her when I needed help finding a qualified candidate right away after trying for several months on my own. She's a great listener, very responsive, and she produced excellent candidates within a very short turnaround. She's literally a miracle worker."
"I called City Personnel looking for help with my job search, and David was fantastic to work with. He took the time to actually understand what I was looking for — including the type of work and flexibility I needed — instead of just pushing whatever was available. He was responsive, easy to talk to, and genuinely helpful throughout the process. Highly recommend if you're looking for a staffing agency that actually listens."
"We’ve had an excellent experience working with City Personnel. Their team has been professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in understanding our company and finding the right people for our needs. We’ve had great success with the candidates they’ve brought us, and their support has been especially valuable as we continue to grow and refine our organizational structure. City Personnel has been a fantastic partner to our company. "
"I had a fantastic experience working with David today at City Personnel. From the very beginning he was professional, attentive and truly invested in finding the right opportunity for me. He took the time to understand my background, career goals, and preferences. I highly recommend David at City Personnel to anyone looking for a recruiter."
"The team is great to work with and they provide quality candidates. They know the need is urgent and work their best to find people that are qualified and what you're looking for. They'll even help you see some things in candidates you might have otherwise looked over. The temp-to-perm arrangement allows us to see and experience how the individual works and mends with our team before fully committing to bringing them on full time. Dawn, David, and their team have given us candidates that have all turned into full-time staff!"
"I enjoy working with the employees at City Personnel. They are very professional, caring and motivated to help me fill open positions I may have. They are always helpful and no challenge is too big for them. They are consistent and truly understand our non-profit culture and mission."
