RemoteStaff helped us fully understand the process, gain clarity on the roles we needed and what we were trying to accomplish, and they recognized the importance of the relationship dynamic within our team to find the right behavioral fit. One of our first hires was an Executive Assistant – who has become an essential contributor to our entire business and now must be replaced as they’re being promoted to a higher position within our company.
