Testimonials from Accelerator program participants

My updated job posting had 18 applicants that were all qualified. The old one had one candidate that was way overqualified. I have hired for the position and am now trying to source these individuals (other qualified applicants) into other areas of our company.

- HR Director, Wholesale company

This program was a game changer. What I would do through the program in one hour would take me 6-8 hours to do on my own. The progress we made was incredible.

- HR Generalist, Transportation services

After taking these trainings it made me have more confidence. When I started, I had 20-22 openings and now I have 5.​ This helped me with how to talk to prospects and ask the right questions.

- Recruiter, Commercial cleaning services
