Trusted by Leading Organizations

Your Partner in Hiring, Training, and Retention Success

Most staffing companies change their customer base every 7 to 10 years. We have customer relationships spanning 25+ years because we don’t just fill seats – we become part of your hiring, planning, and forecasting process.

Our hands-on approach means we work closely with the roles we staff, so we understand the day-to-day realities of the job and the kind of person who will succeed.

Our Proven Process

We identify underlying causes first, then tailor the right mix of staffing, leadership development, and workforce support to your goals and timeline.

Discover

We begin with discovery to understand your goals and pain points: hiring challenges, turnover drivers, workflow constraints, leadership needs, and team dynamics. When appropriate, we may recommend our CORE Assessment® to deepen insight into work styles and leadership traits.

Roadmap

We deliver a tailored People Solutions Plan that addresses underlying causes with targeted hiring, development, and retention strategies aligned to your timeline.

Implement

We execute through flexible service models, from staffing and temp-to-hire to on-site programs, workforce management, leadership development, and employee training. We will also iterate with you to ensure results.

What makes us different:

While 80% of hiring managers have never worked the job they’re trying to hire for, our staff will go in and work your positions firsthand. We invest extensive time in interviewing and training before any candidate reaches your site. That’s why customers tell us: “We’re all pulled from the same candidate pool, but your candidates just seem to be better and better prepared.”

The Resource Difference: What Our Clients Say

“We enlisted the help of The Resource to develop and deliver management HR Compliance training. Our management team was apprehensive about attending a virtual class and was pleasantly surprised! Leslie Speas was engaging and made the training interactive using breakout rooms and group discussion. She made topics interesting and updated the group on Harassment, Family Medical Leave Act, and Americans with Disabilities Act. We look forward to working with her again!”

T. Scannell

Firstpoint, Inc.

“The Resource has been a valuable consultant to my company over the last several years. We began with their help by utilizing the CORE Assessment®. The CORE helped everyone understand each other better and strengthened working relationships. It’s a wonderful tool! The Resource also helped us through a difficult right-sizing period, which worked out well since they knew our employees and could help place them in other jobs. Currently, The Resource assists us with various HR situations we haven’t faced before and need their expertise. Overall, they have a great team and love to help find solutions!”
