Raj Vinnakota, Co-Founder, The SEED Foundation

Staffing Advisors has been essential to the growth of our organization since 2006, helping to fill more than 20 positions in four locations, including our main office and three schools.  Bob’s team is thoughtful, thorough, responsive, and they have access to an incredible network of candidates.  At SEED, we often comment on how our culture is both different and a differentiator.

From very early in our relationship, the Staffing Advisors team got a deep and tangible understanding of the cultural pieces that make our organization thrive, and they translated those lessons into a very successful rubric to determine if eligible candidates would be successful in our culture.  Their ability to tailor the process for our organization is what sets them apart.

Finally, Staffing Advisors is not your run-of-the-mill staffing firm; they truly serve as advisors through the entire process. They have helped us to tweak job descriptions, titles, compensation levels, and mix all based upon what they are learning in the market and aligning it with the needs of the organization.

They are a top-class organization that delivers.

Jenn Wendus, Managing Director, Keating Advisors

As a human resources consulting firm specializing in compensation, we frequently refer our clients to Staffing Advisors for recruiting support. Staffing Advisors’ proprietary approach to recruiting is data driven and analytically rigorous – just like our approach at Keating Advisors. But what really differentiates Staffing Advisors is their expertise as it relates to diversity, equity, and inclusion. They provide clients with proven hiring practices that directly address bias through evidenced-based interviewing and other techniques.  Many of our clients rely on Staffing Advisors’ expertise and guidance to fill critical leadership and staff positions.

Court Ogilvie, Chief Operating Officer, Code of Support Foundation

We turned to Staffing Advisors for a critical position, and Bob and Aileen brought a creative and successful approach from day one. They asked a lot of questions to understand what kinds of candidates would work best for us. They also focused on both sides of the relationship (both the hiring manager and the candidates) in ways that other firms don’t. The Staffing Advisors approach was both strategic (they took the long view) and tactical (they understood that we needed the role filled on a timeline). They also made the effort to understand both our business need and our organizational culture. Whether you are a hiring manager or a candidate, we highly recommend their work.

I felt well supported throughout our search. Ellen was very responsive, aware of our organizational needs, and communicated what was going on behind the scenes with regular updates. The dashboard of candidate information was incredibly helpful at putting everything in one place.

David Campbell, Chief Operating Officer, Optimal Networks

Whatever you are doing for recruiting right now, stop! If finding and retaining the very best people is as important to your organization as it is to ours, you must call Bob and his team. From the moment we started working together, the caliber of candidates improved dramatically. As a direct result of their efforts, our retention rates continue to show dramatic improvements. Staffing Advisors has worked very hard to understand our organization and culture, which has translated into game-changing recruiting results.

Recruiting is no longer something I spend time worrying about; I have an outstanding partner who takes care of that.

David Stone, Chief Executive Officer, Kensington Glass Arts   

We’ve been working with Bob Corlett and Staffing Advisors for several years now. What started as simple recruiting for specific positions has evolved into them managing an ongoing recruiting process that has been highly effective. They have proven to be highly reliable at finding a broad range of talent from C-Level positions all the way down to field technicians and manufacturing workers. They have literally changed the face of our workforce and placed more than fifty qualified applicants in our organization.

By developing job specific hiring blueprints and aggressively vetting the applicants, our staff is left with the simple task of interviewing a pool of pre-qualified candidates which significantly reduces the stress and time commitment inherent to this process. We’ve been very satisfied with the results and knowing that we can fill any open position quickly has allowed our team to grow faster than we could have without Staffing Advisors help. The team led by Aileen Hedden is closely engaged in our strategic staff planning and they have created a process of maintaining a continual pipeline of candidates who are ready when we need them. This recruiting process is now a significant advantage that we enjoy over our competition in a way that we never could have achieved on our own.

I recommend them unconditionally (and often do).

Staffing Advisors has a wonderful process that really helped us articulate our needs for two key positions. It was refreshing to see the speed of the process and the quality of the candidates presented. We knew immediately that we had people who would be a great fit with our culture.
