Report
I've been working with J. Kent Staffing for about 5 months now, and have enjoyed the experience thoroughly. I arrived in the first week of October to the Denver area and had employment by the second week. The agents there worked at impressive speed to get me hired, and was a fantastic support throughout my entire assignment. I was able to get hired permanently, so while the time with J Kent is ending, I want to still highly recommend their work and services, as I'll be doing the same for my peers. Thanks again for all you do!

As a recent graduate I set out on the job search with high hopes. After a few weeks on the search, without much hope for a fitting position, I began to worry that I wasn't going to find a position that I truly wanted and aligned with my needs. Shortly after my hope began to dwindle I heard back from J. Kent Staffing regarding a position I had applied to. I interviewed with Karen Booher who, in the end, ended up connecting me Lauren Brown for a temporary position they thought might be a good fit. I was hired within two weeks of my initial meeting with Karen and I could not be happier with where
