JPS is a very good agency if you are seeking a job. Ms. Lisa Ilagan, an excellent manager, was very helpful and supportive; she guided me throughout my process until I could work at LPCH as a part-time CNA. The staff was also warm, approachable and very helpful too. Though their rates are not as competitive as others may say, they make up for it by how they treat their employees. They make sure you have your scheduled shifts; they are excellent in communication, and if you have any problem/s with work, just call them, and they are more than willing to help you. They also make sure that they produce good-quality workers. Overall, my experience with them was so great, and I did not regret being part of Josephine's Professional Staffing family. So, I encourage you to choose JPS! Thank you, and God bless! read more

Great agency! Lisa Ilagan was my manager and she really cares about her staff and works with you. She is very professional and made sure I was able to work in the best environment that worked for me. i appreciate how informative she is and her great communication skills! Highly recommend this agency. read more

JPS is NOT what one may think it is. Having worked for them as a CNA, the only upside is that they were able to get me into a hospital environment faster than any other agency. They do not have any sort of communication between each other which causes its employees to CONSTANTLY be bothered with excessive emails/texts including on days off. They severely underpay. When I first applied for JPS, I asked or a higher started wage and was laughed at (which in hindsight should have been my first red flag). When I had a serious injury, I was asked to still come into work. There are so many other problems with this company that I wish I could add, but please trust when I say that there are many other, better places to join than this one. JPS is the laughing stock of the hospital. DO. NOT. JOIN. read more

It was a pleasure working for JPS especially with Lisa Llagan she is the best supervisor I could ever ask for and want to thank her for giving me the opportunity to expand my knowledge I would really recommend JPS they are very helpful and have great communication. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time of employment. read more

I discovered JPS through a friend employed by this agency and met Lisa Ilagan, the healthcare hiring manager at JPS. From her friendly demeanor to her great sense of style, Lisa is extremely approachable and professional. My experience in working for JPS and its staff was also equally welcoming and pleasant as this company truly wants their employees to succeed. JPS allowed me the greatest flexibility in my schedule. Most of all, I gained invaluable experience that is marketable and relevant in the highly competitive healthcare industry today. Without a doubt, I highly recommend working for JPS, as it has opened doors of opportunity for me. read more

Very unprofessional and inattentive. I currently have a job, but I am in the market for a better position. So I dropped by since they have this policy where anyone can drop by to meet a recruiter any time. Didn't have an interview or anything, just filled out the paperwork and that's it. They offered me a position for a one month contract for $15/hr. I declined because it's one month and basically a receptionist job... I have a bachelors degree hoping for ANY entry level job in business. I must have been proven difficult because after that I never received an e-mail from them again. Well I reached out to them around 4 times, but they would reply "We will let you know if we have any positions available." Well it's 3 months now. Nothing. Avoid! read more

I am a new Certified Nurse Assistant and was looking for a job in the hospital setting. I was working at numerous caregiving facilities, but when I heard that JPS can get your foot in the door with the best hospitals I had to apply. I was able to gain hospital experience and get a job offer without applying for the position. I am now a new hire at Stanford Children's Hospital working as a core staff member with a team that cares about you. I highly recommend to any CNA's in search of hospital experience that this company will do just that for you. Lisa Llagan, my supervisor, will be straight forward with you and flexible if need be. Great Company to work for! read more

I have been coming to Josephine's for as long as I could remember. My recruiter was Ellen...she was one of THE BEST recruiters I have ever had! Sadly she has passed and I miss her dearly. She was always so very helpful and helped find me a position she knows that I have the background for and pays very well. She was always quick to help find me something when I was laid off, was going to be laid off or simply because I needed a job closer to home or more pay. Now that she is gone and someone else has taken her position, I have not had very much help. I am not sure if its the economy as to why they are not helping as much anymore or because I am not nagging at them as much as I should be. Josephine's just isn't what they use to be! read more

Great place to get your foot in the door. They allow you do get into difficult to obtain jobs with incredible flexibility in hours. My manager Lisa Ilagan was awsome and always puts her employee's needs first. I have enjoyed my time and I recommend their services especially if you need a job to fit your schedule. read more

By far the BEST Agency I've worked with in the Bay Area. The customer service & the professionalism was beyond my expectation. Ms. Lisa my supervisor guided me thru all the steps of applying & getting all my papers completed. I LOVE how they always puts there employees FIRST. All the workers there that I worked with (Josephine, Hamilton & Everlyn) has been so supportive and so loving. They treat you more like a family. apply here you won't regret it! read more

customer services are great, staffing really care about employees, very understanding and always protect employees' rights make sure everyone get paid for work hours. Very flexible schedule. Ms Lisaaaaa and Hamilton are great read more

Joined JPS since Dec 2016, worked as a CNA while doing nursing school, and was placed at Stanford. They have been kind to me and understanding. They were also very professional in all aspects. Working at Stanford gave me a lot of connections. I highly recommend being staffed by this agency! read more

I was contacted in October by Sylvia with Josephine's Staffing looking to place me in a desired contract position. She was very professional, and extremely eager to submit my resume to the Employer. Once I stated that I was interested, she promptly sent me all the notable job specifications and requirements. She had indicated that I would receive a follow up phone call by the end of the day. Before the end of the day, I was contacted with an interview for the following day. I started work with the company just 2 days later. It takes a special person to be able to fit not only skills and abilities but personalities to a company looking for "The Candidate". Sylvia takes the necessary time to review, analyze, and process each resume while applying this to open positions she currently has available. Each company and candidate possesses traits that make him and/or her the right fit for "The Company". I highly recommend Sylvia with Josephine's staffing. She has an amazing rapport with her clients and I appreciate all she has done for me personally. If you are desiring a great job and want to be assured that you are being matched appropriate to your skill set and personality-Rest assured, Sylvia will not let you down. A personal THANK YOU to Sylvia & Josephine's staffing - You are an Amazing Staffing Agency! read more

In 2011, I was contacted by Ophelia from JPS through Monster about a position that was opening up for a GSA (government services agency). I spoke with her over the phone and made an appointment to meet with her the next day. I was instructed to bring my passport as proof of US Citizenship and my social security card, as a background check would be needed. When I arrived for my appointment, Ophelia had already left for the day. So I met with Ellen, who was very nice and we chatted about gardening while I filled out the paperwork and she made copies of my passport and card. After waiting 7 business days, I emailed Ophelia for any update to which she gave me the "don't contact us, we'll contact you" line. I never heard back from her despite checking in periodically. I gave up in September 2011. I did not have a good feeling about this job placement agency. I should have followed my gut. To this day, I feel very stupid to have given up my personal information so easily. I constantly monitor my credit report and worry about possible identity theft. I didn't appreciate the brush off, but luckily I had found another recruiting firm (that never asked me for my passport or social security card up front) that placed me into the job I'm at today. So please be careful about who you trust. read more

This place is a joke ! They shouldn't even be allowed to call themselves professional because there's nothing professional about them . They do not return your calls or follow up . Don't bother to waste your time . You're better off finding a job on your own. read more

JPS has been great to me! They provided me with a job fast and have always been flexible with my crazy school schedule. I am thankful for the opportunity to work with them. Lisa Ilagan has been especially helpful and supportive. Thank you for everything! read more

Great place to start if you are interested in working in the hospital. I was placed at Stanford/Lucile Packard, which helped me with a lot of new connections. Also, if you are studying or have another job it's a great flexibility of schedule. read more

I am a nursing student who is trying to work through the last quarter of school to get some experience. Josephine introduced me to the world of professional nursing experience. The staff is very nice and supportive and understanding. My manager is Lisa Ilagan. She is very good with communication and tries her best to accommodate her associates. For me so far, it has been a pleasure experience working at Stanford because the schedule is very flexible and I can work how many hour or how many day I want. read more

This is a great company to work with. Unlike several other agencies around the Bay area, they were able to give me the required experience to be hired as staff in the acute environment. As an individual that strives to become a nurse in the future, I thank them for being a key stepping stone to my professional future. read more

Out of the blue I received an email from Sylvia at Josephine Staffing asking if I was still seeking employment and if so that she had a federal job position available. I never gave Josephine Staffing my resume or even heard of them. At this very moment I am in the final stages of the hiring process and anticipating my start date soon. A one year contract with 4 more year option...or permanent employment with the U.S Attorney Office if offered by them. Exceptional pay and full benefits offered. Collecting unemployment for several months and with one email.... Sylvia at Josephine Staffing has changed my life. read more

I worked with JPS for a little over a year and I would say it was a very pleasant experience. Lisa the manager, was very kind and welcoming. They worked around my busy school schedule and was very understanding. They helped me obtain the experience that landed me my dream job. If you are struggling to find a job in the healthcare field or just interested in obtaining experience, I would recommend that you consider working with JPS. read more

I have worked for this agency for six years as a CNA and have gained a lot of experience to help my journey on becoming an RN. All the staff were very understanding and flexible in the work schedule. They always accommodated my availability which helped ensure a stress free environment for me. I enjoyed working at Stanford Hospital as a float CNA, because I was able to be exposed to different types of patients which made the job exciting each day since I never knew which unit I would float to until I checked in. I would highly recommend this agency to anyone who needs flexibility in their schedules, because the friendly staff are always willing to tend to the needs of their CNAs. Thank you to them for helping me gain all of this knowledge and gets hands on experience at a hospital.u read more

After being laid off for a year I finally decided to try Josephine's Professional Staffing, as per a suggestions from my cousin. I initially emailed Sylvia and she was quick to respond to my email and send my information on the job I was told she had available. She then called me since the job description did not fit my background. She reassured me that she would keep an eye out for me and contact me as soon as something came up. It has been less than a week since my initial email to her and she has already placed me. It is a 6 month temp job that offers medical insurance great pay and is minutes from my home. I was so pleased with the service and professionalism and most importantly availability to me and any questions I had. The professionalism soon turned to a more friendly down to earth relationship where I feel open to talk as if I was talking to friend instead of feeling the pressure of having to be super professional. Sylvia has been great the office has teamed up and worked together when a question on TB testing came up where the job was requiring yet another test be taken. I highly recommend this team they will work with you to ensure you are placed in a job you will love. read more

JPS was the reason I was able to get my foot in the door at Stanford Hospital. I've had my disappointments and disagreements with some staff members, but that all changed once Lisa Iligan took a position at the office. She is very professional and does her best to meet my requests. She is really good about communicating with me. To this day, I have no complaints about her. She is great to work with! read more

It was a pleasure working for JPS. They are very flexible in your working schedule and provided a lot of experiences for me. I thank the staff, especially Lisa, for being very responsive to any email and phone call. I thank them for being a very good stepping stone in advancing my career to becoming a nurse in an acute care setting. read more

Over two years ago I signed up with Josephine staffing services. I scored very well on their tests and had great references but they never came up with any work for me other than a one day assignment working at a convention. You'd think with the economy picking up that they would have something, yet I am always told there is nothing available. I was interviewed by Sylvia. I call in every week and she speaks to me like I am garbage. It seems they choose the people they want to help by whether they personally like them not on if the candidate is professional and capable of doing the work. read more
