Scam employment agency. I got a phone call from an Adriana claiming that I would hear back…read moreregarding a position that I really really want and it turns out I got nothing. This staffing agency is terrible but better than Adecco. Why? They are the biggest clowns ever compared to these guys. When you try to follow up, they told you they will keep you posted and you know what? I have been completely lied to. I was told I will know by the end of June and here we are now. No response from these clowns as well. I went to clown college for undergrad and this is how I am repaid. Do you want me to run your staffing agency? I got the qualifications because I went to clown college too and can do a better job than everyone who works here. If you are mentally challenged apply with them at your own risk because in the end you get treated like trash. If my ex girlfriend was a staffing agency this will probably fit the bill. Unacceptable. Is this any way to treat a neurodiverse person on their career break? I think not. Being mean to a mentally challenged person is a crime and seems to me like this staffing agency is committing it. Thanks for ghosting me and making my life a bigger cesspit of failure. I will still apply with you guys but don't count on me being lenient with you because that opportunity is lost now.

Do you like working with professionals with personality and heart? Do you need to trust…read moreprofessionals with your career? If so, do not move along. You have found them. I first submitted a profile which was very easy to do. They do a good job cutting the barriers to employment. Within a day, I was contacted by Julia B. We set up an initial interview to just get to know me. We had such a pleasant conversation. Despite the current Pandemic Crisis we are in, we were able to discuss our thoughts on the situation because it is unavoidable, then we proceeded to the interview. It was smooth, she was clearly an eloquent communicator and very passionate about her job. She informed me next steps and we were done in our allotted 15 minute time frame. Julia continued to be responsive. She provided me two emails. Just two. One to set up the interview with the recruiter with tips included (bonus) and one to confirm my interview. The day of, she reminded me of the interview via 1 text. Then there was Grace S. The interview was scheduled for 30 minutes. Get two HR Professionals in a room that truly understand service for others and what the HR profession is about and you will quickly notice 30 minutes is not a lot of time. Grace is the recruiter you want by your side. She takes the time to know you by listening to you, actively, and she takes an interest in what makes you, you. That is exactly what a recruiter needs to do. One that can present you completely. Not just by resume, but really "go to bat for you." You instantly feel safe and trust when you speak with her. She is honest and she is open. In times of where we really need to earn people's trust, Grace goes the extra mile to earn it. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation and her blunt honesty. As an 15+ year HR professional, this was pleasant experience and a great choice for me. Julia and Grace are great representations of "PREMIER TALENT PARTNERS" and I look forward to building long lasting professional relationships with them and their colleagues. Many of us are being adversely affected by the crisis. In these times, turn to people who will take it upon themselves to ensure your success. They truly care and they truly want the best for you, at least that is how I felt. Remember they are humans too, I brought positivity to the table and got a great result. Come in with a good attitude and you will see, they will provide great service. They are professionals through and through. Don't wait any longer, choose the best, choose Premier!

I can't get enough of PTP!…read more Close to two years ago I nearly solidified my decade long tenure at Alameda county working as an EA with CIOs and CTOs as long as I can remember. I wanted a job sector change and venture out what's out there. I tried many opportunities with two other hiring firms but both have been discriminating against my previous experience. This one other particular firm interviewed me and told me my EA background in government is laughable. After many years of public engagement, being trusted by my executives, actually thinking I was a bigger part of something in my career, I had one other hiring agency told me I wasn't worth it. It hurt so much. It wasn't until my friend told me about PTP. I was already traumatize with hiring agencies I wanted to bypass PTP altogether. So flashback to 1.5 years ago. I placed in an application through LinkedIn and was immediately contacted by Sue, Jackie, and Rebecca. I went to interview at their Palo Alto location (an actual chic office and not some shanty bedroom/house converted office) and immediately wanted to get to know me. Rebecca sat down with me and listened to my needs. Why I was searching. Why want venture capital? Why go after start ups? What was your culture like in government sector? I couldn't believe my eyes. Rebecca was acting like that one friend who always wants updates on you. It didn't feel like an interview, it felt like you were sitting down at brunch and talking casually with Rebecca and giggling, just enjoying atmosphere and talking about career. I left their office in good graces. Sure enough, they had 2 JDs for EA and EA/OM after two weeks. I got a job at a VC firm! Ladies and gentlemen, top recruiting is not about making money. These recruiters know that you are already a good fit at the start, they will help you mold into it. Other hiring agencies could benefit from this tip. Thank you so much Premier Talent Partners! I would 100% recommend!

From the very first call it was clear she was on top of her game and understood the client's needs and (more importantly for me), my needs.

I never felt like I was left hanging or felt in the dark. Best experience I've had with a recruiter hands down. Highly recommended.

I have worked very closely with Aaron Lewis, now at Santa Cruz Staffing, for over 7 years now,…read morestarting when I was working at the Capitola Career Center and Aaron was a recruiter across the parking lot at Manpower. Our relationship continued through his time at Threshold, Bay Photo, Fox, and into Santa Cruz Staffing. His direct experience at different companies gives him insight into the unique nature of the Santa Cruz business community. If I were looking for a job myself, looking to hire someone, or trying to help someone get hired, Aaron would be my go to guy. He is very creative and easy to work with. Aaron has a talent for working with everyone ranging from someone looking for their first job, to someone who is in mid-career, or even someone going for that top level, executive position. I know of an instance recently where he was working with someone who was looking for their first job, was very shy, and had a hard time putting herself out there for interviews. Aaron coached her to build up her self confidence and land that first job very quickly. Jobseekers: Aaron will help you target your resume for a specific position or company, coach you on how to prepare for interviews, and how to present yourself as the very best candidate you can be. Employers: Aaron will help you find the right person for your opening. I've seen him solve some very challenging recruiting problems, finding just the right person for a unique position. Santa Cruz Staffing has always been my favorite agency in the Santa Cruz area (I can say that now; as a former government employee, we weren't supposed to show favoritism). Aaron is great, recruiting par excellence.

My experience with Santa Cruz Staffing has been nothing short of excellent. I quit my last job…read moreafter 6 years because I needed a change of pace and wanted to expand my skill set. I sent an initial inquiry email to them in early December, and I heard back to take proficiency tests and schedule an appointment with them on the 10th. My appointment was on the 17th where I got to know Ellen who gave me some invaluable advice, resume review, and a pep talk with the enthusiasm that I only wish I could have had for finding myself a job, let alone for someone else. On the 19th I heard that I had a phone interview for the 23rd. That went well and I started work on the 26th. I'm throwing all these dates out for a reason. From the time I initially made contact to the time I actually started a job was a mere 16 days. And I had a meeting with them within 7 to actually start the process. This was an INCREDIBLE turnaround time for someone who has been applying to jobs non-stop for the past 3 months with little to no word back from any. I got feedback on my resume and interview skills that have undoubtedly increased my chances at getting hired again in the future, whether through them or on my own. They are incredibly kind and supportive, and genuinely want to find work for you. A large number of the positions they get are temp-to-hire so you can go in with a relatively stable outlook, and if a job isn't working out for you or doesn't fit your skill set, they are happy to help you find something else that works better for you. They want to get you working, and have you be satisfied with it, and you can tell they care from the moment you walk in. I look forward to working with them more in the future if I should need other employment, and I cannot recommend them enough.

World Premier Agency new age hiring not just staffing…read more With no notice my hard working Mom needed a job, and just in time for the holidays too. She reluctantly turned back to staffing having a few not so good experiences rattling around her mind, but those were quickly out weighted with Christmas on our minds. Determined she began applying, I helped her fill out application after application until our fingers almost bled, we're losing hope. We called World Premier and a warm friendly voice answered the phone, it was Rodrigo. He asked how he could help, then surprised us with the way he listened and the urgency he treated her with. Like her problems were not just hers but theirs too. Rodrigo got her hired within the same week, and followed up with her after her first day to see how she like it and how they treated her. Little things like this add up to make a big difference in one's overall experience. World Premier Agency is not a typical staffing agency it is the bridge between you and your career.
