Meet the Team
DIVERSITY, EQUITY AND INCLUSION

DEI is at the forefront of our core values at Career Contacts. Through various diversity and inclusion initiatives, we can better partner with our candidates and clients and increase our alignment and service offerings. We believe DEI begins in-house, and we leverage, live, and breathe this in our workplace. We believe this is critical to our success.

Safety First

Safety is important for every employee we place on-site, and Career Contacts strives to put the safety of our internal and external teams before all else. We partner with our clients to ensure that they have the tools to operate in the same fashion, and ensure our employees are welcomed into safe sites every time.
Corporate Social Responsibility

This is an integral part of our purpose as a company. At Career Contacts, we believe that we must put the highest value on our employees, customers, communities, and the environment. While supporting local candidates and local clients, we are also committed to supporting these communities at large, which allows us to give back in a meaningful way.

Our Colleagues

By creating a unique compensation model that steers clear from commissions, we ensure that our teams work collaboratively, not competitively, and that our clients and candidates come first. By being people-centric, we ensure that the work we do aligns with how we want to do it.
Our Clients
Our clients are unique, and their recruitment process and needs are too. We have our process but are able to easily adapt and customize that process to ensure our clients feel supported in the way they need!
Our Candidates
Our process invites candidates to be screened in, not out of the hiring process. We work with our candidates to set them up for long term success, not just for our current roles, but for future opportunities. We love watching our candidates succeed in landing their dream job!
WE BECOME AN EXTENSION OF YOUR HR AND LEADERSHIP TEAM on an as needed, fractional basis AND ARE AS INVESTED IN YOUR SUCCESS AS YOU ARE.
Let's Work Together
AT CAREER CONTACTS, WE ARE DEDICATED TO GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY.
We partner (formally, and informally) with organizations and invite you to learn more about each organization, and the work they do.

  • “Natasha and the entire CC team is amazing! Everyone is warm, welcoming, and most importantly transparent about the work that they do. Career Contacts will answer any questions and help you walk through the entire process whether it's your first time or hundredth placement. I can't thank the team there enough for what they've done for me during this chaotic and stressful year. I recommend anyone whether you're a job seeker or an employer to contact the CC team. You will come out of the first conversation appreciated, rejuvenated, and empowered. You'll be looked after like family and they will advocate for your success like their own.”
  • "I had such a wonderful experience working with Crystal! She is incredibly professional, diligent, and has a warm, supportive approach that truly makes you feel like you're her top priority. Her communication was always prompt, clear, and efficient, which made the process smooth and stress-free. I especially appreciated her valuable advice and gentle encouragement."
  • "I’ve had the pleasure of working with Career Contacts on two separate occasions, and both times they've delivered exceptional results. Not only did they help me land good-paying jobs that aligned with my preferences, but they also showed remarkable flexibility and efficiency. The second time I worked with them, I was looking for a position that lasted 6-8 weeks, and incredibly, they secured exactly what I wanted within just a week. Taj, my contact person, was outstanding in her job. She understood my needs precisely and delivered exactly what I wanted. I truly consider Taj to be my lucky charm in my career pursuits. I'd highly recommend career contacts and especially Taj's expertise to anyone looking for tailored job placement support."
  • "Our firm engaged Career Contacts just over 3 months ago with the intent of streamlining our transactional HR functions. Natasha and her team have been so effective that we have now moved our entire HR process into her hands. At our size, this solution is proving to be a great fit, with high level expertise available when needed but not on the f/t payroll. Very happy and appreciative to date."
  • "Natasha and her team are absolutely fantastic at Career Contacts. They have been so helpful in guiding us through all of our Recruitment and HR needs. Natasha is super professional, and very responsive! I can't thank the team enough for how quickly they were able to help us from recruitment and hiring to creating contracts and understanding HR policies, even with tight deadlines! Thank you for your tailored support!"

  • "Natasha and her team have worked wonders with the Leadership Certificate Program. The content, facilitation, organization of the courses has been amazing. So much hard work and dedication has gone into the delivery of the program and it hasn't gone unnoticed. Natasha and her facilitators delivered the courses to our senior production team perfectly and really got the team thinking.

    This cohort has gone extremely well for us and we can't wait to roll it out to the corporate side of the company in the second half of the year.

    Natasha herself has a wealth of knowledge that I and the rest of the People and Culture team have tapped into on numerous occasions and she is always there to support us."
