Verified User • Hiring Manager
Candidates provided are of value to my team, and some we have even hired full-time. I couldn't be happier to have a great source of temporary staff. Element Staffing listens to and genuinely considers the needs of the company, provides excellent service all around.

I love that Element Staffing focuses on scientific roles. Other temp agencies have such a broad range of clients that their recruiters aren't able to understand the needs of the science industry. At Element Staffing, their screening of candidates narrows down the pool so we only get qualified candidates who fit our needs.
