Thorough, succinct, and friendly placement with CulverCareers. Cooper was clear, timely, and friendly throughout the entire process. He provided an accurate description of the role and was able to answer all my questions about the position, pay, and some insight into the culture of the team. I felt that he was genuinely interested in placing a good fit for the team and valued that he had taken an interest in me being a fit.
McCall was great and very responsive and always kept me in the loop! She was great to work with.
Ty was very professional, and I received and accepted a job offer within a week of connecting. I connected with a great match/employer with my current skill set.
Tim is extremely communicative and great to check in with me and follow up on candidates. His emails are always upbeat, positive, and helpful, and I always look forward to them.
Congratulations, Sara. I recently became ill and had to change my travel plans last minute. Sara had to contact all the candidates and reschedule for two weeks later. I know this took a lot of work, and you would have never known it because Sara was so kind and positive to make the change.
Theresa found two very worthwhile candidates within a short period of time that my company ended up hiring.
Literally everything! She has such an invested interest in my needs and the needs of Knight’s Site Services, that I feel she knows exactly what I think and feel about candidates she presents. She is the reason I keep coming back to Culver for all of my staffing needs!
