Kayla Shea: RecruiterI’ve been recruiting for just over 6 years, and even on days where it feels like I am doing everything wrong, I keep going because I know the picture is much bigger than what’s painted. There is something to learn about yourself in every interaction that you encounter. And I can’t help but feel there are many things in life that are more challenging than they should be…like something as simple as finding a job you actually enjoy. So why not make it easier for people if you can? I find so much value in allowing people the opportunity to feel comfortable and transparent in their career search. I want people to embrace what it is they bring to the table and my hope is that they feel even more confident after they are done working with me.
A Few of our Clients...
“Working with PRG was amazing. They kept me working as a temp Workers Comp Examiner for years, even when the market was slow they managed to keep me employed. When I finally decided I wanted a permanent job, they found me the perfect job close to my home. I cannot recommend this firm highly enough.”

“I’ve been contacted by recruiters in the past but it hasn’t ever led to much. My experience with Alex and PRG was completely different. Not only did I get to interview with some outstanding companies but I received an offer that no one could beat. I’d highly recommend PRG for their outstanding commitment and communication throughout the job hunting process.”
