I met Lynn at the Hawaii Career Expo in January. I appreciated that she asked about and listened to my specific schedule and job type preferences. She immediately had a few options in mind that were a good fit. She and her team (Kawehi, Kelsie) were prompt and responsive, which made the process very easy. I was interviewed and hired within a couple of weeks. It was a great experience! read more

I highly recommend! I worked with Claudette and she got me a position that aligns with my career path and wages that I wanted within a reasonable time frame. For any employment placement needs you should definitely check out Altres staffing! read more

I'm really impressed with the structure of Altres' onboarding process. I have never seen such a well organized flow of each step. Kawehi, Leighana and Lynn are a dynamic tteam, whom i had the pleasure of being interviewed and helped by. They made me feel welcomed from thr start, and went above & beyond in such a quick time frame, it really exceeded my expectations! Truly impressed. The positions they have presented so far, are exactly what i wanted to come across. I love how they help potential employees understand the process, by listing down what to expect from Altres. It's so organized and transparent. I admire this! I highly recommend Altres Staffing, especially the dedicated team: Kawehi, Leighana and Lynn, for professionals seeking employment with great successful companies! They are awesome at what they do! 10+ stars in my book :)) read more

The team at ALTRES (Lynn, Kawehi, Lisa and Kelly) were incredibly helpful and attentive throughout the entire process. They kept me informed, answered all my questions, and made everything smooth and stress-free. Thanks to their support, I landed a job that I'm beyond excited about! Their professionalism and genuine care truly set them apart, and I highly recommend ALTRES to anyone searching for their next opportunity. read more

I had no idea at first about what ALTRES was or how they operated so I decided to give it a try with no expectations. The team was very knowledgeable and took me through every step with ease. Mahalo to Lynn, Leighana, Lianna and Kawehi for their hard work, kind and friendly customer service and not to mention positive encouragement! I am grateful that they found a fit for me and thoroughly appreciated how seamless and easygoing the whole process was. Thank you! read more

Super grateful for the awesome team at Altres! The ladies that helped me (Kawehi, Lynn, & Leighana) were very friendly, professional, and understanding of my needs. They consistently communicated with me on my job hunt and always followed up until I found the right fit for me. I couldn't have asked for a better team to work with and would definitely recommend them! Thank you Altres! read more

Mahalo to Lynn, Noelle and Kawehi for helping me find an awesome job! The entire process from beginning to end was seamless, professional, positive and friendly. I interviewed with Lynn and she hit the nail on the head immediately by providing 5 potential employers which were aligned with my expertise. I was extremely impressed by her ability to listen attentively and execute promptly. In addition, she ensured I was prepared for my interviews. Lynn, you are a MVP! I highly recommend ALTRES Staffing. Their team was consistent in providing quality service. Their efforts and dedication were extremely impressive. Mahalo for making my experience unforgettable! read more

Claudette was amazing in helping me through my job search journey. She was super responsive and communicative throughout the whole process. I highly recommend going through Altres because I was able to secure a great job through them! Claudette was truly a wonderful person to help me through all the difficulties that come with finding a job. read more

The office in Honolulu is very clean and spacious. The employee that helped me today is Tabitha. I was greeted in very warmly. The reason I came to the Altres office is to find a job. Tabitha is so kind, compassionate, and caring. I'm so thankful because I now have a job from Altres. Everything went very smoothly throughout the work form process. Thank you Altres and Tabitha for helping me become successful in my job search. Tabitha helped me every step of the way and answered all my questions. Spectacular Service!!! read more

I would like to make a shout out to ALTRES Staffing and Team. Especially to Shannon, Lisa & the three beauties out in the front desk - Ali, Po and Saku, for being amazing & so helpful in helping me find a great job where i am now permanent and happier than I ever been. Not only was the communication direct, but it was kind and understanding, they helped me through all my questions and even some minor bumps in the road, they was there to be my support. Their service is top notch, not only the facility but their hearts are so kind. I will highly recommend ALTRES to all those who are unsure or kind of in a set back from starting your life over again, these people take value in what they do and I am beyond grateful for the support they have given me. Thank you again ALTRES, many blessings and aloha to you all. GOD BLESS :) -CK read more

Very professional organization. If they are as good getting me work as they were on boarding me, I will definitely recommend to others.

**HIGHLY RECOMMEND** The team at Altres has been my greatest ally. From the start, Noe beautified my resume and helped me narrow my preferences. Claudette organized interviews for me to attend and we found a fabulous fit. And Roxanne was swift in addressing my issue(s). The team overall was fabulous to work with, for the first time finding a job was painless and pleasant! Thank you to the team at Altres for your overall moral support during this time of transition and adjustments. + I have already referred a friend! read more

EDIT: For employers: I just learned from an admin of a tech department that of the 5 employees that were hired for their company through job agencies, the 1 employee that was hired through ALRTES had very poor performance, causing the company to waste their money fixing the problems the employee caused, and eventually let them go. The other 4 were good employees. This is only one instance so make of that what you will. -- For job seekers: I have spoken to my peers about the job agencies they use and they have all said the experience I had is not typical of other companies. I would recommend you go to a different agency that will take you seriously and respect your time. I almost gave them 2 stars because *most* of the staff that I have interacted with are very pleasant but the appalling interaction I had most recently far outweighs that. 1. Interacted with one rude staff member that asked if I was still interested in work to which I told them yes. I have told the company several times what my job experiences were but they have asked me for this information at least 3 different times a month apart. During the most recent call, they did not have my full work experience which lead to the employee making a rude comment towards me with my work gap since she didn't see the work and schooling I have done between then and now. During the end of that call she said I'd best fit a customer service role to which I said "sure" (even though they can clearly fking see that I have a BS in Computer Science???) and then she said "no a full time position." I have told them the past 3 times that I was looking for part time and temp positions because of my current jobs. It seemed like she knew this and asked anyways for some reason? If she wanted to push a full time job why not ask if I wanted a full time job related to the DEGREE THAT I TOLD THEM I HAVE that I have expressed previously that I am searching for something in this field as well. What is the point of giving them any preferences or information about myself if they are not going to take any of it into account? 2. They have only given me jobs 20 miles away, more than 15 minutes after the job had already started knowing I do not have a means of traveling that far. 3. The one job I did work with them went well for the most part until the last day where they did not tell some employees that they would not be working that day. This lead to them traveling to work for nothing and the client being confused as to why so many of us showed up because they let ALTRES know the day before that they wont be needing this many employees. read more

I first reached out to Altres in Spring of 2024 when I saw a full-time job listing that looked interesting. Shortly after, Lynn gave me a call to learn more about my background and career interests. While that particular opportunity didn't work out, Lynn continued to check in with me over the next few months, sharing various job openings that aligned with my skills. I was grateful that Lynn kept me in mind throughout that time as new opportunities came up. By the end of 2024, Lynn scheduled me for an interview--even checking in with me through different phases of the process--that ultimately led to a job offer. I'm grateful to Lynn and the Altres team for their guidance throughout the job hunting process! read more

Since January 2021, I have been working with Altres Medical till present which is Dec 2021 as a agency nurse providing staffing for Covid Vaccinations. Altres Medical has consistently provided excellent customer service. I have called, texted, and emailed during business hours and have all questions answered in a timely manner. ** FYI for new employees** Please keep a personal log of your start-lunch-end time. Lastly, please understand staffing is according to business needs that fluctuates on a weekly basis or more. Thus, it helps to be flexible to working other places to meet 20 hours per week to continue Medical coverage benefits if needed. read more

It's been nearly 4 years since my last review of Altres, and with all that's happened in the jobs market since the pandemic I thought it was time for an update. While I'm still working full-time with the company that Lynn Hiyane found for me, I've also been working some temp events for Altres in my off hours. These could last a single day, weekend, a couple of weeks or longer depending on their client's needs and my availability. Lisa Kodama and Shannon Ng contact me by text, email or phone when something pops up to see if I'm interested. The extra money really helps and Altres pays weekly, so no waiting 2 weeks to get that extra pay. Whether your looking for a long or short-term gig, I highly recommend giving Lisa or Shannon a call at Altres. read more

I highly recommend Tabitha and the team at ALTRES Industrial for anyone looking for a supportive and nurturing employment service From the moment I walked through their doors, I was treated like family. The team at ALTRES Industrial took the time to get to know me and understand my career goals, and they were dedicated to helping me find the right job. Not only did they find me a great job, but they have continued to support me as I grow in my career. They have provided me with resources, training, and opportunities for advancement. I truly feel like a valued member of their community, and I am grateful for all the assistance they have provided. If you are looking for an employment service that isn't just a find you any job service and that will go above and beyond to help you succeed, look no further than ALTRES Industrial. They truly care about their clients and are committed to helping you reach your full potential. read more

ALTRES Staffing - Employment Agencies Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Great people! Lynn and Kawehi helped me find and turnaround on a very good job in a short amount of time. It fit a lot of what was on my checkboxes for a good job. Very considerate and easy to work with. Excited for my new job! read more

By far the GREATEST staffing company that any can find. They will help you from the very beginning, to the very end. Claudette and Roxanne were EXTREMLY helpful in answering all my questions and guided me through everything I needed. They were very friendly and I called them about everyday for an update and they never got frustrated or tired of me following up with any questions I had. They were very quick in all aspects and I would recommend them to everyone. 1000 stars given if possible!!!!!! read more

I would like to thank Kawehi and Lynn for helping me look for jobs. I appreciate all that they did for me when I had a hard time looking for a job. I had a great experience with both of them. They were very consistent & communicated with me everyday if there was any job openings. If you apply for Altres, you will be in good hands. Kawehi and Lynn will take very good care of you & they'll make sure you'll have a job in your best interest. -Shy A. read more

it would be nice to have someone other than Cherice(sp?) who's far more knowledgeable and personable. This 'child' refused to listen or help in any way. The front office tried transferring me to someone else to help me since she was smart enough to understand what I was asking. My VERY BASIC question, do they do direct deposi? That's it! I didn't give her any names, I didn't ask for personal information if anyone, just a very basic question that Cherice didn't even know! She just rushed me off and told me to ask others. It's a YES or NO question, simple as that. If Cherice was intelligent enough to land ANY job, she should've known to ask someone for the answers she clearly doesn't know. Super irritating...having a child answer that phone for some reason. read more

If you need a job, I highly recommend contacting recruiter Claudette Miller at Altres. She has experience and connections. I have personally gone through her twice and landed great jobs. The whole process was very fast and professional. In less than 1 week I was placed in a job! Due to the pandemic they don't see people in person, but I was glad to do everything by video, email or calls. Don't delay and call Claudette today! read more

Although my time with ALTRES was short, it was a great decision to go to them when I was in need! Filtering through different job applications is always tedious, but I decided to give ALTRES a try and Lisa got back to me in 5 minutes (really). It was so fast and so easy since all I needed to do was submit a single resume. Lisa was always so kind and understanding, really trying to find a job that fit for me! They have connections with so many businesses around the island and are working to help you find the job that YOU want, temporarily or not. Thank you ALTRES! read more

Extremely helpful and understanding staff. Shout out to Claudette and Roxanne and all the staff. Very professional, polite, a joy to talk with. Any questions or issues are dealt with timely and satisfactorily. All of the staff are commended. Thank you! P.S. Shout out to Lisa and Shannon too! Both permanent and temporary branches far exceed expectations! read more

I'd highly recommend Altres for Students, moms, and etc. basically ANYONE! I am a full time college student and decided not to take summer classes this summer so I can work and find a steady full time job that will allow me to still have time for homework and other things. -- I found Altres through a friend and at first I was hesitant because I wasn't sure what would come of this; pay deductions, not getting a perfect fit, etc. but I was proved wrong. At first when I applied for jobs I looked at strictly Medical job openings because that's what I am going to school for (A specific medical field, but I'd rather not say here). When I was first reached out to I had a hard time finding a job on my own because you really need a lot of experience in a specific job or your degree, so it was hard finding something that could fit me well. I prayed on it and it seems as though God was having me wait for the perfect job. Kawehi ended up reaching out to me after weeks of me trying to find me a job and sent me a job that fit EXACTLY what I was looking for. It's in the EXACT field I am going to school for, the EXACT shift I was looking for, and the EXACT pay range! I got an interview the NEXT DAY and got the job! Lynn, Kawehi, and Zana are AMAZING at what they do and I truly hope you all get to experience the hard work and dedication they have to find you your perfect fit just as I have. Thank you all again, I really appreciate you all! read more

Altres was recommended to me by a friend. I admit, I was a bit hesitant at first because I never used a staffing company before. I was looking for jobs on my own on various websites, but they didn't work out. To be honest, I was having a difficult time, so when another friend got a job through Altres, I decided to give them a try. I worked mainly with Lynn, Zana, and Kawehi (Roxanne and Claudette also contacted me regarding 1 position). They were quick to set up an online interview and I met with Zana to talk about what I'm looking for. They have lots of things you have to fill out, but it's to help them learn more about you so they can recommend jobs that are suitable. One thing I LOVE about working with their team is the constant communication. They call, text, and email. I'm always able to reach them and they respond back fast. They contacted me whenever there was a position they thought would match what I'm looking for. They also considered my preferred location, pay, etc. and provided as much detail as possible. If a job didn't match something (Ex: pay was lower than what I wanted), they would still let me know about the available position and let me know that pay was lower. That really helped to open up my options because I can be flexible about that. I really appreciate that they always asked me if I'm interested in the job or not. I never felt pressured to say yes to a job when I wasn't interested. They were always really understanding. There was a position that I interviewed for and I followed up with Lynn to let her know I was interested and really wanted the job. She followed up with me first and then followed up with the company. Later, I received a call from her and she asked me for the reason I quit my previous job. After explaining to her, she told me that she is asking because she heard back from the company and they were gonna pass on me. Lynn shared what the person who interviewed me seemed to be concerned about. However, she decided to clarify with me and told me she will call the company again to let them know my situation and what I meant. I was beyond touched because I felt that Lynn really went out of her way to hear my side and communicate that to the company. In my perspective, if Lynn had just called to let me know that I didn't get the job offer, then I would've had to accept that and we would've had to move on. BUT! I was so grateful that she fought for me :) It was the weekend and we had to wait a few days to hear back. I felt that the chances of the company changing their mind was very low. I was starting to lose hope, but eventually, Lynn got back to me with good news!! I was so surprised, super happy, and super grateful :) She also expressed how happy she was for me~ Since quitting my previous job, I was job hunting for a while. I experienced a lot of setbacks and I was really beginning to worry and stress out about finding a job. I will never forget how happy and relieved I was the moment I heard back from Lynn that the company offered me the job. Lynn, Zana, and Kawehi were all so helpful during this job hunting process and made me feel less alone. THANK YOU GUYS SO SO MUCH! I am sooooo grateful for all that you guys did for me :) If you are unsure about whether or not to contact Altres, doubt no more! Call them!! read more

Great company and individuals that really put in the effort to assist me towards my career path. Kawehi was amazing, easy to reach as needed and her team Lynn and Zana were all helpful in the manner of finding me a job that was towards my career along with my passion. I would definitely recommend going through ALTRES! read more

Claudette Miller has consistently provided me with outstanding professional service. As a Placement Manager/Executive Recruiter, she has offered me high level positions with reputable law firms throughout my entire career. I truly believe that because of Claudette's passion for helping people/candidates strive to attain the highest level with respect to their career, this trait makes her EXCEPTIONAL at what she does. I consider her more like a family member than a Placement Manager. Not only has Claudette looked after me religiously as my Placement Manager throughout my career, but she has also successfully placed my students with high paying paralegal positions as well. No doubt, Claudette is truly a great asset to ALTRES. She will go above and beyond the call to find every candidate the best employment opportunity. You're the absolute BEST, Claudette! Thank you for your OUTSTANDING support and service! read more

I've been working with altres for years very professional as far as I know. They are on point with your needs and always treated me very well. read more

The last 4 years working with Altres Staffing have gone by so quickly. I just realized that my current main job that was assigned by Altres Staffing began as a short 2 week temp job turned into a 3 year, full-time permanent accounting job. Even though it has been a long-term position, it is reassuring that I am still working through Altres Staffing with Lisa Kodama and Shannon Ng. I absolutely love they frequently contact me by text, email and phone when a job that they think I'll be interested is available. I never thought it was possible through a "temp/placement" company but with Altres, I have medical and dental insurance, and even a 401k with matching. Before the Covid-19 pandemic, Lisa and Shannon enhanced my monotonous non-profit agency office job routine with a variety of exciting fun one day jobs at night or on weekends. I was assigned to work at symphony concert events on weekends at the Blaisdell and their special events at Royal Hawaiian Hotel. It didn't feel like a job at all. I greeted VIPS, assisted the celebrity performers with their CD/Poster signings and enjoyed all of the concerts. Another fun event was the Light Garden by Symmetry Labs in Ward Village. It didn't feel like a job at all to be directing the visitors through the exhibit surrounded by all the sparkly lights and music. When the Covid-19 pandemic began, everyone at my non-profit agency job immediately switched to work-from-home mode. Altres supported this move and has been a great resource for Covid-19 safety precautions. During the last year, Lisa offered me numerous independent work-from-home gigs through other non-profit agencies. This definitely brightened up my uneventful daily routine. Just this morning, Altres reached out to me to ask if I was interested in working an event at the Hawaii Theater. Unfortunately, I had to pass but I am really looking forward to going back to work at all the in-person events when the pandemic is over. Occasionally my main job asks me if I want to leave Altres and work exclusively for them. While I am very happy that they asked, I enjoy and value the flexible variety of options that I have with Altres Staffing. I am extremely fortunate to working with Altres Staffing. I truly appreciate and highly recommend Lisa Kodama and Shannon Ng! read more

I applied with ALTRES for a role that I thought was a good fit with me, and I quickly got a phone call to set me up with an appointment with Lynn. Not only did she help me understand the role I applied for better (it was not as good a fit as I originally thought), she helped me find a role that I didn't know existed, and was a perfect fit for me. I'm much more happily employed now, and it's all thanks to her taking the time to talk to me and understand not just my skills, but also what my goals were. To top it off, every single person I spoke to was also very friendly and helpful; we all know that applying for jobs is stressful and absolutely not fun, but my experience with ALTRES made it way easier. read more

I would like to thank Tabitha and her staff with providing me with exceptional service while I was looking for a new job. They were very helpful and the process was super easy I was able to get all forms filled out using my cell phone with ease. Thank you ALTRES Staffing for your professionalism.I am truly grateful, Mahalo Nu Nui! read more

Highly recommendTabitha was amazing giving me tips on how not overdress which really helped me because I tend do that. Also WZ was very great on greeting and giving instructions re: Timesheets and Payroll mahalo again Altres. read more

I have been employed with Altres since around 2016, mainly working the DOH flu clinics as a RN. Since Covid started, I have also been working the Covid vaccination clinics with them. There are many job opportunities offered through them, not just vaccination clinics. I like how they conveniently text me the needs they are looking for, and if it fits your schedule, you can respond to let them know you are available. You can pick up as many or as little shifts as you please. The staff is always so accommodating and responsive. I enjoy being employed by this company and will continue my employment with them for years to come! :) read more

I took my wife here for a drug screening for her new employment. I called ALTRES beforehand and easily made an appointment the next day. ALTRES was the closest location to us, located along Kapiolani, next to Doraku, near Ward Ave. Make sure you slow down a little because the ALTRES building is blocked it's neighboring buildings. There is parking provided, but it was limited and all taken. I drove around the area and there is ZERO street parking because they're ALL Reserved for businesses. After a few circles and driving through the ALTRES parking lot several times, someone finally left. The staff here are friendly, and the office and waiting area were clean and cool with everything modern looking. My wife said she had to wait downstairs in the parking lot for someone to greet her. She was taken across the street, into a small building that felt exactly like a studio apartment sans the kitchen. How odd! read more

I contacted Altres after my personal attempts at securing a job didn't prove fruitful. I applied for a job in the morning and Altres contacted me within two hours: I was pleasantly surprised. After the initial, intake conversation, I was then put in contact with Placement Manager, Lynn Hiyane. Straight away, I was instantly comfortable in speaking with Lynn. Her skill and ability to communicate and make a connection resonated with me. Lynn then coordinated an interview with an amazing company whom I am now employed with!. Lynn was instrumental for me in securing this job because she took the time, and asked very detailed questions, to understand my skillset based upon my prior experience, training and my knowledge. For that, I am very appreciative. I have also contacted Lynn for part-time, weekend work because I needed to supplement my income. Talk about a win-win! I definitely know that if it wasn't for Lynn at Altres, I wouldn't be in this position that I am today. I am grateful for her personable professionalism and her thorough knowledge of the job market. Mahalo Altres for having incredible and quality employees and thank you for what you have done for me! read more

I would just like to take this opportunity to thank Lynn of Altres. I've always reach out to her when it comes to looking for work in the states and She never disappoint me. She is very accommodating, responsive and has the willingness to help and make your job hunting smoothly. I'm so grateful I met her and she has been helping me and very supportive whenever I get the job. I hope she knew how a big blessing she is to people like me who doesn't know anyone in the state when it comes to looking for a job! Thank you Lynn!! Wishing you all the BEST to all your future endeavors. Mahalo, Faye Capellan read more

Bridgette let me respond to you. I was offered 3 positions to be exact which 2 I couldn't take since we had just gotten on the island and our vehicle wasn't here yet! And the other one Kawehi offered me which was a supervisor position that I told him I was willing to interview for in person... And I didn't hear back from him yet! You all wanted to send me to positions that you wanted me to do. The position "Personnel Coordinator" was a in house position which you all decided not to interview me for even though I had the background for the position! Which felt like a discrimination based on how I was treated when I inquired about the position! Terrible company! With a lot of fake reviews and horrible customer service! Horrible leadership! Than Roxanne offered me this other position on Monday and I told her I would be willing to interview for it but she called me telling me it's an hour away like she was trying to deter me from going for the position. This was even after I told her I'll still make the drive! She told me to call someone and verify the area and possibly drive down by the job to make sure I wanted to take the job. Than I ended up telling her the same day she was right the drive was long after speaking with my husband and she still sent my information over to the company! So a totally of 4 jobs was offered to me and 2 I was willing to interview for despite how I felt that you all were trying to push me in a direction that I didn't want vs a career field I wanted to be in! And if my background don't match the company background am I not suppose to pass on those opportunities? Interesting... I don't have have any questions for your organization! But it was a learning experience not to work with a company like ALTRES ever again! read more

Thank you Altres for your awesome service. The initial information process takes quite a bit, but they really do what they can to set you up with multiple job offers. Thanks to Lynn and Kawehi, I'm starting my new job this week! read more

If you are looking for a job or more so a career, Altres is the place to go. With their assistance and all their connections, they know about jobs before anyone else. Simple and painless process but be ready to test your excel word and Outlook skills. Thanks to Lynne Hiyane and Kawehi Scott For walking me thru the whole process and finding me a new job. read more
