About JENNMAR Services

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

Whether you’re seeking a job or seeking an employee, when many people think of a staffing agency, they think of a middleman whose only concern is to fill slots with warm bodies for someone else. Quantity over quality. Sadly, that is how some agencies work. At JENNMAR Services, the men and women we hire work for us, first and foremost. JENNMAR Services employees earn competitive pay and benefits, including a 401K plan. We scrutinize, test, and train everyone we hire as if they were to be our permanent employees... because they are. While the vast majority of the positions we offer lead to full-time, permanent positions with other companies, the people we hire work for us until they are prepared to move on, all the while gaining skills and confidence or simply demonstrating their value to a company eager to hire them.
