Michelle did a wonderful job of coordinating efforts between both parties (myself and the company i am working for). She was excellent at staying in touch with me regarding status of potential employment. I really appreciated her quick responses to both emails and phone calls. I would happily recommend Michelle / Snelling.

I moved to Colorado in November of 2019. I spent the first few months searching for a job and then COVID-19 hit us. As a result, I was unemployed for the next 19 months. In May of 2021, Michelle Jabs of Snelling Staffing received my resume and gave me a call. She indicated that there was a position with a construction company that she felt my experience matched and she quickly schedule a phone interview followed by an in person interview. Michelle made the entire interview process easy. A few coaching tips here and there, some updates to my resume, and before I knew it I was hired on as an Assistant

After months of searching unsuccessfully on my own, Melanie Ecker came across my resume. She understood the wide range of skills and experience I was trying to portray and suggested a position to me, which was exactly what I had been wanting, but couldn't quite name. It has now been almost 3 weeks since I first spoke with Melanie and I just finished my first week in my new position with a great company and team.
Melanie was professional, highly responsive and a great advocate. If you are struggling to figure out your next career step, I highly recommend Snelling Staffing.

Melanie at Snelling was absolutely amazing. Not only was she a great advocate of skills, she has an in-depth understanding of how they might translate into other fields or areas that might not be readily apparent at first. She is honest and a great encouragerIf Im ever looking for employment again she will be the very first person I call. Thank you Melanie!
