“I have worked with Emergent since 2007, and they are my “go to” personnel vendor whenever I need to find top talent. No requisition is too big or too small and I get incredible customer service every time. They know their clients and know how to develop a search that matches not only matches skill sets, but company cultural fit as well. They approach every search as being an extension of the internal company staffing team and are always there to make sure they not only fill the position… they ensure that they fill it with the RIGHT person.”

“When I was asked to provide a recommendation for one of our staffing agencies, I jumped at the opportunity to do so for Emergent. I have been the Network Operations Manager for the past 22+ years and have had many employee needs at our facility in Houston, and in the past 3+ years I have found an outfit that understands our needs better than most and that is Emergent. I have always found my relationship with this outfit to be strong because they understand what type of people we need to get the job done and done right. I have worked closely with them on several projects and they have always acted as true professionals, and I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for good quality people.”
Network & Operations Manager, Logistics & Distribution
“Emergent Professional Resources is definitely different that other recruiting companies. The Emergent team is intensely committed to their customer’s success and to their employee’s growth that causes deep loyalty from both. I enjoyed particularly the close working relationships that we have built. At Emergent, you are not just a number in their system; they really go above and beyond to get to know you on a personal basis, and that makes all the difference to me!”

Unlike most staffing companies, Emergent displays the utmost professionalism and are very knowledgeable about the industry and market. They are very diligent and a great asset to any organization who is looking for someone to help find excellent candidates along with defining business goals.”

“In working with Emergent, they have differentiated themselves, in a highly competitive field, through customer service, follow-through, and qualified candidates. By focusing on partnering with the client, Emergent builds trust through straight forward and honest collaboration. This makes a difference when working to fill short term and long term roles. Their focus on understanding client culture requirements as well as role requirements results in a better candidate fit.”
