Testimonials

What our Clients and Candidates are saying about working with KeyStaff Professionals

Jill B

Sr Director of Human Resources

KeyStaff Professionals provide thoroughness that is very rare in this industry. They truly listen to what our needs are, and they are consummate professionals. The entire staffing process is managed at a very high level. I truly value those qualities and highly recommend them to any organization looking to source high quality, capable candidates.

Sheila P

Director of Talent Management

I’ve worked with Kari and Karen at KeyStaff Professionals on several professional opportunities in HR and Finance. Kari and Karen are partners that care about more than just a placement fee. They make you feel like they have your best interests at heart and don’t take advantage of your vulnerability when you have critical openings. Every contract and direct hire they’ve provided us is thriving at my company.

Lauren R

Contract - HR Manager

Karen/KeyStaff Professionals took the time to thoroughly understand my previous experience and was instrumental in translating those abilities and strengths to the client which resulted in a win-win for both of us!

Josh W

Contract - Logistics Clerk

My experience with KeyStaff Professionals was a positive one! I was matched with a great local company and enjoyed consistent weekly pay. Overall, there were no issues in my 11 months, which was a relief given the image some job agencies present. Karen checked in with me weekly and even provided helpful advice when it was time to interview for a permanent position outside of the agency. I would absolutely recommend working with them!

Alyssa E

Business Partner - Human Resources

Kari and Karen from KeyStaff Professionals are wonderful partners! They are genuinely invested in not only filling our roles with qualified candidates, but also providing a great candidate experience along the way. They do such a great job listening and understanding the needs of our business, communicating along the way, and adjusting the strategy as needed. I appreciate our partnership, and best of all, they are fun to work with!

Tiffany M

President and COO

Kari and Karen are top notch in the recruiting space! I met Kari years ago as a COO looking for finance staff. Her style ( the opposite of a pushy salesperson) immediately got my attention. Throughout the years, I have come to appreciate and rely on her transparency, honesty, and integrity.

I currently refer my clients to Kari and Karen for contracted staff needs. I happily refer KeyStaff to CEOs, Finance leaders, and other executive management because I trust they will find the right candidate and remain professional along the way. Kari can work with a variety of executives and always meets their needs, and Karen has an impressive gift of fitting candidates with the role. They don’t place and run either! Both Kari and Karen offer follow-up, regularly check in on the engagement, and support the candidates as well. I appreciate their process and their transparency. If you haven’t worked with them yet, you are missing out!

Helping Our Communities

WE WORK WITH LOCAL COMMUNITY CHARITIES TO HELP GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITIES THAT NEED IT MOST!

Recently we worked with Second Harvest to help provide food to families in need and Toys For Tots to help get less fortunate children presents for the holidays.
