    I have worked very closely with Aaron Lewis, now at Santa Cruz Staffing, for over 7 years now,…read morestarting when I was working at the Capitola Career Center and Aaron was a recruiter across the parking lot at Manpower. Our relationship continued through his time at Threshold, Bay Photo, Fox, and into Santa Cruz Staffing. His direct experience at different companies gives him insight into the unique nature of the Santa Cruz business community. If I were looking for a job myself, looking to hire someone, or trying to help someone get hired, Aaron would be my go to guy. He is very creative and easy to work with. Aaron has a talent for working with everyone ranging from someone looking for their first job, to someone who is in mid-career, or even someone going for that top level, executive position. I know of an instance recently where he was working with someone who was looking for their first job, was very shy, and had a hard time putting herself out there for interviews. Aaron coached her to build up her self confidence and land that first job very quickly. Jobseekers: Aaron will help you target your resume for a specific position or company, coach you on how to prepare for interviews, and how to present yourself as the very best candidate you can be. Employers: Aaron will help you find the right person for your opening. I've seen him solve some very challenging recruiting problems, finding just the right person for a unique position. Santa Cruz Staffing has always been my favorite agency in the Santa Cruz area (I can say that now; as a former government employee, we weren't supposed to show favoritism). Aaron is great, recruiting par excellence.

    My experience with Santa Cruz Staffing has been nothing short of excellent. I quit my last job…read moreafter 6 years because I needed a change of pace and wanted to expand my skill set. I sent an initial inquiry email to them in early December, and I heard back to take proficiency tests and schedule an appointment with them on the 10th. My appointment was on the 17th where I got to know Ellen who gave me some invaluable advice, resume review, and a pep talk with the enthusiasm that I only wish I could have had for finding myself a job, let alone for someone else. On the 19th I heard that I had a phone interview for the 23rd. That went well and I started work on the 26th. I'm throwing all these dates out for a reason. From the time I initially made contact to the time I actually started a job was a mere 16 days. And I had a meeting with them within 7 to actually start the process. This was an INCREDIBLE turnaround time for someone who has been applying to jobs non-stop for the past 3 months with little to no word back from any. I got feedback on my resume and interview skills that have undoubtedly increased my chances at getting hired again in the future, whether through them or on my own. They are incredibly kind and supportive, and genuinely want to find work for you. A large number of the positions they get are temp-to-hire so you can go in with a relatively stable outlook, and if a job isn't working out for you or doesn't fit your skill set, they are happy to help you find something else that works better for you. They want to get you working, and have you be satisfied with it, and you can tell they care from the moment you walk in. I look forward to working with them more in the future if I should need other employment, and I cannot recommend them enough.

Honestly if you need a place to go were the people there care about other humans this is a master class of people helping people, I just want to say a massive thank you again for all your help it certainly could have been a pain to get my papers figured out and printing in the correct way!

    I want to share my sincere appreciation for the wonderful staff at this UPS location -- especially…read morethe older lady who works there. Everyone here is kind, but she has a special way of making people feel welcomed and at ease. Her kindness may feel "normal" to her, but for someone like me, it meant so much more. Her warm attitude, patience, and the way she genuinely enjoys her work stay with people for a long time. You can feel that she truly cares -- not just about the job, but about the people who walk in. Whether I'm returning a package or asking a question, she always explains things clearly, helps without hesitation, and makes the experience stress-free. In today's world, this kind of sincere kindness is rare and deeply needed. Because of her, this UPS store has become the only location I want to visit. Every time I pass by, I feel comfort -- almost like healing -- because she brings that kind of gentle presence. Thank you for the wonderful service. People like her make the world softer, warmer, and so much better. And one more thing -- I often come here to drop off my Amazon returns and Nespresso recycling bags, and even though those things don't bring any profit, the staff always treat me with kindness. That level of care means a lot.
