Elyse Williamson’s Summary

It’s an employer’s market for staffing right now. So many applicants looking for work; so few openings for which they’re all competing.

Even so, that doesn’t mean that it’s quick or easy to find the next great employee to join your team when a staffing need arises.

• Does it give you headaches to think about the time and money you’ll expend to create and monitor job advertising?

• Does it cause you nightmares to anticipate sorting and prioritizing the hundreds of résumés you will receive from your ads?

• Would it ease your schedule and your stress to entrust the first interviews with the stronger applicants to a qualified professional, so that your valuable time is targeted to the very best available candidates?

• Would it reduce your worries to ask a staffing expert to conduct your skill assessments and your background screenings, so that your hiring decision can be based upon a fuller and clearer picture of your prospective employee?

When you’re ready to focus your precious energy in developing your business and ask someone else to shoulder these staffing pressures, please contact me!

Elyse Williamson’s Experience

  • Staffing Consultant

    Frank's Employment

    (Staffing and Recruiting industry)

    July 1998Present (11 years 6 months)

    I handle direct-hire searches for firms in greater metropolitan Chicago, especially the far west suburbs. These include skilled office positions (e.g., administrative assistant, executive assistant, bookkeeper), as well as profession-related positions. Recent searches have included entry-level help desk, software engineering, staff accountant, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, operations management, marketing director.

    What I most enjoy about my position with this staffing agency is our commitment to personalizing the process for our candidates and our client companies. We make every effort to communicate effectively with applicants throughout and beyond the staffing process for any particular search. We also work to cultivate a direct relationship with each of our client contacts so that we better understand and represent your immediate staffing needs, as well as your long-term business objectives.
