In addition to matching individuals with job openings, McCallion also works with them to help secure the job.
“It’s not just finding individuals a job. It’s teaching them. We help them with their resume, tell them what to wear, and how to interview at these companies,” Beverly Schaffer, a recruiter at McCallion Staffing, states.
Additionally, McCallion Staffing speaks to businesses about potential employees.
“We pitch the individual’s story to the company. It might not be the strongest resume, but we feel their personality is a perfect fit. This is person you really want working for you,” Lisa McCallion states.

“Staying in the same community and being connected to this area has been great. A lot of customers have been with us for 30 years.” Lisa states. “We often know the companies better than their HR people do.”
