Learn why StaffQuest clients love us across the country

When I moved to Vancouver Island with my family in 1994, we searched for a service that would assist us in finding qualified candidates for our own existing business.There didn’t appear to be a company that provided us with the same support we used in Vancouver, so I thought to myself, ‘I am going to do the research and see if this is an area that I could become involved in.

Maybe I could open-up a business with the emphasis of searching for great quality employees for other companies’. I quickly became convinced that it was a great way to learn about and contribute to, our new community.

StaffQuest was borne of an in-depth feasibility study, hours of intense research and an inordinate amount of dedication and tenacity. At that time, our community hadn’t realized the benefits of using a service such as ours. This was a concept that had to be proven over time. We learned lasting lessons through trial and error, and today, StaffQuest has a clearly defined understanding of our hiring culture here on Vancouver Island.

Our boutique style agency has provided proven and personalized approaches to our clients since 1995. Here's what they think...

Pen Denham

Chief Financial Officer at BC Forest Safety Council

"This is to thank you for the great job your staff does whenever I call for help. I rarely give much notice but always get great service and good quality temporary staff. They come in ready to do the job, and are always pleasant and professional. It is particularly nice that I can often get the same people again because they know us and need little oversight. I really appreciate the service your organization offers; it frees me up to worry about other parts of my business. I would highly recommend your service to anyone who needs help. Thank you!"

Karen Bacon

"We have been using the services of StaffQuest Placement Group Inc. for our temporary staffing needs for several years now. StaffQuest has been essential in providing us with consistently efficient and helpful employees. The team at StaffQuest has always been very professional and responsive to our needs even when under very short deadlines. We would gladly recommend StaffQuest to other businesses for their staffing needs."

Judy C.

First Capital Asset Management LP

"StaffQuest was the perfect solution for a very large and busy property management company who was working through relocation efforts. The work-load was steep and escalating but with plans to move, First Capital relied on the temp administrative employees provided by StaffQuest. StaffQuest provided employees who were professional, dedicated to their jobs and were very helpful during the transition. I highly recommend their services."

Raelle Johnson CPA, CGA

Partner, INGRAM, JOHNSON & ASSOCIATES

"I wanted to thank StaffQuest for your services. I was impressed by how easy it was to use StaffQuest rather than go through the whole process of interview and setting up payroll etc. for a temporary position and I would definitely recommend the service you provide. I appreciated the follow up as well and it was great to see the efforts made by StaffQuest to ensure the placement was working. We really enjoyed Lorraine and she did a great job! She was very professional and not only did what was asked but also looked for ways to improve our existing processes and put forth suggestions. We appreciated her over and above efforts.Thank you"

"Our company was seeking an employee to perform several high skill level duties, including financial and administrative functions. We were delighted not only with the individual sent to us, but also with the efficiency and professionalism of StaffQuest’s staff and management. In fact, we were so impressed with the employee hired for the short term, we decided to maker her a permanent addition to our company. Again, I was very impressed with the professional way in which StaffQuest management handled this decision. The transition from short term to permanent placement was completed effortlessly for us as well as for the employee. I would highly recommend StaffQuest for temp, temp-to-perm or permanent placement."

Debra Barraclough ICIA

"A big thanks for sending a temp on short notice. My admin who required assistance was pleased with the temps work product. We will be sure to use StaffQuest for any future administration requirements. Thanks again."

"My experience working with StaffQuest has been nothing short of excellent. My company has specific dates and deadlines for jobs to be completed by and StaffQuest always respects those deadlines and provides reliable employees in a timely manner. I enjoy working with their team and know that if I have any jobs needing to be staffed, StaffQuest will provide me with respectful employees. I can highly recommend this company."

"I found StaffQuest to be extremely valuable in helping us to find a “temp” with the right skillset to fit in with the needs of our clinic. The temp did a wonderful job, picked up new skills quickly and efficiently and was a great help to me. I would not hesitate to recommend StaffQuest to others looking for temporary or permanent staff."
