Pros
Magi Nee at Trustaff Allied has been great to work with. She’s always quick to help me with whatever I need and responds fast, which makes everything a lot less stressful. She keeps me updated, checks in regularly, and is really good at finding solid job opportunities and getting me placed quickly. Everything has been smooth working with her from the start, and I’ve always felt supported through the whole process. I really enjoy working with Magi and appreciate how reliable and on top of things she is. Definitely grateful to have her as my recruiter.
