Association looking for Executive Assistant to the Director
 
"We had been having trouble keeping key people in this position. Everyone here was overworked and stressed from filling in to accomplish the extra work load. We had placed ads but never were able to hire the right person because none of us really had the expertise or the time to handle the hiring process. We finally hired a temp and that helped somewhat. However, buying out her contract from the temp agency would cost over $11,000 and we were not sure she was the right person for the position. We were feeling desperate when Career Success Services came to our rescue. They were outstanding! They saved us the chore of weeding through thousands of resumes. CSS not only looked for the people with the right skills and experience, but also with high EQ (Emotional Intelligence). They sent us only the top candidates to interview and we would have been delighted with any one of the choices."


Law Firm seeking a Paralegal


"I can get up in front of a jury and try any case fearlessly - but ask me about hiring a paralegal and I used to say I’d rather die a thousand deaths. The last paralegal we hired left without giving notice. We tracked her down only to find she had filed for unemployment insurance. I had to hire an attorney to defend us. It was a nightmare. I was so desperate that I was ready to hire the daughter of a friend, someone with no legal experience. We were so busy and I knew we would never have time to train her, but I didn’t know what else to do. When a friend told me about Career Success Services I thought I would give them a try. CSS saved the day by finding the perfect fit for our high pressured, fast-paced firm. She is honest, professional, and fits the culture of our office. It has been a real win-win for everyone."
 
 
Small Business Looking for an Office Manager

"When we hired the wrong person, who lasted less than two weeks, we were stunned to discover that the cost to us for the wrong hire was over $30,000. We had to write and place an ad, weed through hundreds of resumes, evaluate and assess each resume, interview several unqualified candidates, get them on the payroll, establish benefits, and begin training. Then there were all the disappointments from built up expectations. We know our business, but we don’t know much about how to weed out resumes, interview, and then choose the right people. One thing I really liked about Career Success Services was that they talked to key people in our organization first and asked the right questions, then personally tailored the ad so that it said exactly what we needed. They were objective about describing the position in ways we never could have been. Our workplace can get kind of crazy at times and we need to have people with our same sense of humor. It was crucial to us that the person we hired in this key position fit into our culture - and Career Success Services did just that."
