Pros

I have been with Trustaff since February 2021 and Ben Sanchez has been my recruiter. I can’t say enough about him he has always looked out for my best interest. I don’t have to deal with a group of people. He is definitely an extension of our family. Trustaff is definitely a great company to work with and Ben is an A+ recruiter!
