In 1995 an idea on Vancouver Island sparked a legacy.
Here's our story.
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.
