About Synergy Labor Solutions

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

Synergy Labor Solutions began out of the desire to contribute to the staffing industry. Although we are entering a large market with other staffing companies, we realize the need for a personnel staffing agency that fills a void left by other temporary and permanent placement agencies. Our company matches specifically skilled workers with clients, saving time and money. This requires a high level of communication. It means asking open-ended questions and listening, not talking. This means knowing the regional market so our company can really serve each client and employee, not just "sell" them our service.​ OUR OBJECTIVE is to provide high quality, experienced, professional workers to clients that are currently relying on the instability of word-of-mouth contacts, and are spending much of their own time and resources (and, therefore money) locating such workers;To provide workers with a path by which to reach the employer without spending their own time, money, and energy finding the work; To use the opportunity to make the contingent workforce a better place for both the employer and the employee.​
