I was looking for a job quickly due to an assignment I was working on ending. I applied on indeed for about a week, got a phone call from J. Morrissey within minutes of applying, literally MINUTES! Katrina was amazing every step of the way! She made sure things went smooth with my hiring process, pushed me into my orientation hours before it would start the following morning, and gave me step-by-step directions on how to start my first day! I wasn t unemployed for a full week before I was working again! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
