I reached out to Stansbury to help in finding a new role in the tech industry. Grace got back to me right away and told me that while they generally do not have roles for the kind of work I'm familiar with, she would be glad to meet with me and talk about other avenues by which I could continue my job search. Grace was kind and professional as well as understanding of the tough economy. I was so glad she took the time to help me understand how her organization might be able to help. read more

Stansbury has connections with some amazing local organizations, and they really go out of their way to take care of you. I found them when I was back in school and just looking for part-time work, but I had such a positive experience that I ended up sticking around for multiple assignments and even (miraculously) found full-time work in my field. This job market is hard, but Grace and Allison lifted me up and helped me bring my A-game at every opportunity. I'm incredibly grateful and would gladly recommend their services to anyone. read more

Allison was great to work with from start to finish! She made sure to answer any and all questions I had. She also followed up with me from time to time just to check in. I was able to get converted to FTE thanks to Stansbury, and it was because of the tremendous support from both Grace and Allison! I'd recommend Stansbury to anyone who is having a problem finding something out there. read more

I can't thank Grace and Allison for all the hard work they do. They are hands on in the whole process from beginning to end. From your resume, to the interview process, they want you to thrive wherever you end up. They are also thoughtful, kind and continuously follow-up to make sure everything is going well. It was a an absolute pleasure working for them. Whether you're in the market for a temporary job or a full-time position, you can't go wrong with Stansbury. read more

Grace and Allison were absolutely amazing to work with! Grace fully understood my vision for my future role, and did not stop until she found me the perfect role. It felt like Grace cared personally about my job search, and was not just looking to put me in any open role. Both Grace and Allison are extremely efficient, responsive, and detail-oriented. They were communicative and kept me updated from the start of my job search, all the way through my temporary employment period, to my conversion to permanent employment, and even afterward to check that things were still going well. Grace extensively prepared me for interviews, from question prep, to interview attire, and even eased my nerves by providing exceptional detail on the location beyond just sending an address. I felt like Grace was always advocating for my best interest which made me feel protected which is unlike any other experience I've ever had with a recruiter. There are simply no surprises with Grace and Allison, which is highly appreciated when searching for a new role in a tough job market. I am grateful that they found me my perfect role for the foreseeable future, but whenever the time comes to find my next role, I would be thrilled to work with them again. I am forever grateful -- thank you, Grace and Allison! read more

This review is long overdue, but I would like to express my gratitude to Grace and Allison for helping me navigate my job search as a young professional. I worked a few temp assignments through Stansbury Staffing and I ended up receiving a full time position at the last company I was assigned at. Each experience was a good fit based on my qualifications and interests. Stansbury is very thoughtful in their approach to helping you find a job position that best meets your skill set and job requirements. I especially appreciated the communication from Grace and Allison during each step of the process. Thank you so much! read more

I cannot say enough about how amazing Stansbury Staffing is. I used them during a rough career transition time, having never worked with a temp agency before. Grace was incredibly responsive and listened intently to my needs. She was considerate and careful in the assignments she sent over and continuously reassured me I would land somewhere great. She was right. I took an assignment and within a month was hired full time! Furthermore, throughout my search before finding an appropriate assignment, she continuously checked in with me and was always available to check in. Grace and Allison were absolutely a pleasure to work with and truly care about their clients. They make communication seamless and exemplify care for their work. I would without a doubt recommend them to anyone in need of a temporary position or going though a career transition. read more

The staff at Stansbury are incredibly accommodating. Not only did they help me find a job, but they coached me through the interview process, gave me insight on how to better my resume and stuck with me until I finally landed a great position! I was so impressed and grateful to have had the support of this team, I would recommend them to anyone seriously looking for an admin position in the Bay Area. read more

The greatest staffing company I've ever dealt with. Grace, Anj and everyone there are the definition of hardworking and caring people. I am a recent college graduate and I was introduced to Grace through a relative of mine, she said that "Grace and everyone at Stansbury really care about what you are looking for, and go out of their way to get you in a place where you feel you can grow." I definitely agree Grace has been very encouraging of my endeavors and really pushing me to look beyond what's in front of me. Stansbury was able to get me a job interview within the week I met with them, and by that next week I had a job in a great company. The job wasn't in the field I was looking for, so Grace informed them of my future goals and the HR manager wanted to help me transition from the position offered to the field that I wanted. I love the job the people are great and I feel like I can grow with them. After a week I was unfortunately involved in a tragic incident that caused me to be in the hospital for a week and out of work because of the severity of the injury. Grace was kind enough to visit me as well as the HR manager from the job that hired me. Grace ensured that she would do everything to make sure that my job was still there waiting for me if I wanted it, and someone can only ensure that because of their great relationship with the company's they deal with. I have been out of work for 2 months now, and I must say Stansbury has been great. They check on me almost every week reinsuring me that ready and waiting for me to come back, and that is definitely encouraging for someone in my situation. If you are looking for a job, but you also you want to deal with people that have your best interest in mind go talk to Stansbury Staffing they will definitely take care of you! read more

I've had a great experience with Stansbury Staffing as a temp. When I first got into contact with the agency I knew I had called the right place. From the first phone call to meeting them in person, they were so helpful and made me feel comfortable. My experiences were with Haley, Grace and Anj. We arranged for an interview and I was really impressed with their interview process. It was done in such a way that would help find a well-matched position. I was temporarily placed in a great assignment that had many of the things things I was looking for in a new position/work experience. Given my experience and what I was looking for it was a good match. While I decided to go in a different direction, my experience with this agency has been the best. I would highly recommend this agency and its staff. They are a jewel in helping those of us in career transitions. They make you feel comfortable and are genuine, plus they are very experienced in what they do. read more

After a long struggle to find a job after graduating college, I came across Stansbury Staffing, submitted my info and met up with Grace to discuss my qualifications. Grace was incredibly understanding of my situation and gave excellent advice on how to match my strengths to available positions. Grace was very helpful during the whole time I worked with her, allowing me to come in for a mock interview to determine interviewing aspects I needed improvement in. After taking a series of tests, I landed an interview for a role that was a great fit for me and ended up receiving a job offer the day after. I highly recommend Stansbury Staffing to anyone looking for work in office and administrative roles, especially recent graduates. Well deserved five stars! read more

5 stars "As good as it gets" is totally accurate. I moved to the Bay area having just graduated from Australia and was worried my credits would not carry over well but despite not knowing anyone, Grace got me placement within a couple weeks. She is an absolute darling who genuinely cares. This was 2 years ago, i'm still happily at the placement Grace got for me and have moved up the career ladder twice since then and I've recommended her to all my job seeking friends with great results. Such a treasure! read more

I put my information down and was contacted right away. I scheduled a time with Grace and spoke to her about what my current goals for positions are. She was very honest with me and told me that she doesn't normally have the positions I wanted at her agency. I respected her honesty and she even gave me tips and motivation on how to keep my job search going. Although I didn't get any placements here, I can definitely see why this place has so many great reviews. Grace really cares about candidates and she is one of those rare and honest recruiters. read more

I would expect an experienced recruiter in the valley to possess the qualities that they are looking for in their candidates. I would think that that most working professionals in the valley would be savvy, efficient and relationship-driven. Not the case with Stansbury Staffing. In 2013, I never expect this sort of redundancy. I accidentally came across Stansbury Staffing when I applied to what I thought was a job on Craigslist. After playing phone tag with Emily for several hours - we were able to connect. She was very kind, and we agreed to set up a time to meet face-to-face to talk about the opportunity. I agreed to drive down to San Mateo from San Francisco. She said that she would send me an email to confirm -- and when she did, an "application" was attached. Emily insisted that this application must be competed before we met. I open it, and it's 5 pages long. And it basically asks every question that's already clearly answered on my resume. Phone Number, email, job history, references, etc. The spacing was terrible - the layout was bad. It looked like something you'd fill out to work at Starbucks in 1996. I immediately lost confidence in Stansbury Staffing. This looked very amateur. For example, they wanted to know how many words a minute I type. My shorthand ability. If I can use Quark and Word Perfect. (Do companies still use WordPerfect?) The best part was this: "What are your goals for the next two years? ___________________." Really? You expect me to write out my goals for the next two years on a line that is about 2 inches long. "Where did you hear about Stansbury Jobs? _________________." You know where I heard about it. You were masquerading as a legitimate job on Craigslist. You found me. I didn't find you. Honestly, everything on this ridiculous application could be garnered from a conversation, more importantly, a connection could be made and trust could be built. I would expect the recruiter to take down the necessary notes during that conversation and get back to her client with the things that are important and relevant. Stansbury Staffing is probably good at placing people in low-paying temp jobs, but when it comes to sourcing talent for C-level/Partnership Executives, they really don't know what they're doing. read more

Anyone who leaves Stansbury Staffing anything less than 5 stars was probably having a rough day and took it out on this awesome agency... Grace (the Amazing owner) and the staff at Stansbury restored my faith in the job placement industry, but more importantly, restored my faith in myself. Last year, I came to Stansbury...all bruised ego and feeling sorry for myself because I had just gone through 4 staffing agencies, 10+ interviews, and 1 temp position. I was usually the runner up, over qualified or just not a fit. Grace showed a sincere interest in me, she broke down my wall of self-doubt, dusted off my ego and gave me the ammunition I needed to land a contract to hire position with an awesome tech company. Unfortunately, the company was acquired a few months after I started so when I felt it was time for me to move on, Grace supported me with no reservations. It was always about me. Grace didn't realize that not only did she help me land an amazing opportunity, she gave me the boost in confidence I needed and opened the door to make some life-long connections (I just had lunch with a few colleagues last week). Grace connects quality candidates with incredible opportunities. What makes Grace stand out is that she's one in a million, the needle in a haystack, that rare, honest recruiter who sincerely cares about her candidates. Her door was always open, she holds herself to the highest level of integrity, and she is always so easy to talk to. This works for both the candidate and for the companies she works with. And the staff is just as awesome. They were all so down to earth, attentive and were sincerely happy to work at Stansbury. So thank you to my Amazing Grace and the super staff at Stansbury, you not only made my job search experience a positive one, you also helped get my grove back. read more

This is one review that is long overdue. I just wanted to say thank you to Grace and her staff for finding job placements for me in the past as I worked with them for several years and most important and I have never worked with such helpful and caring group of people. I recommend Stansbury Staffing agency to anyone looking for employment as they work with many companies through out the bay area. As always I will continue to refer family and friends to Grace and her staff and if I ever find myself looking for work this will be my first stop. read more

I cannot thank Sansbury Staffing enough. I was at the end of my rope in trying to find a job that would be a great fit. That's when I found Sansbury Staffing and Grace who helped to motivate me and get me back on track. She was very friendly and personable and right off the bat, I could tell she really cared about matching me and placing me in a position that fit my skill set and goals. She went the extra mile in making me feel comfortable, and never made me feel unqualified or underachieved, she always stayed positive which was very important to me. Within only days of reviewing my resume, questionnaire (an in-depth document given to candidates to fill out before they first meet with a staffer) and discussing my goals, Grace called and said there was a temp-to-hire position that fit my preferences. The opportunity was perfect and was a great match. This proved how dedicated Grace and Sansbury Staffing was to completing their mission. I have now been happily employed and on a great career path all thanks to Sansbury Staffing. To this day Grace still checks in with me to see how my job is going a and I'm always exciting to tell her about all my advancements and achievements. Thanks Sansbury Staffing and Grace for getting me back on track and placing me on a career path I can only move upward on. read more

Grace & Fran are fantastic! Stansbury Staffing is a small recruiting agency in San Mateo. I've been working with them on and off for over 6 months. They spend the time to really get to know you and only suggest jobs that you are highly qualified for. The job market has been tough, but they did send me on one interview, which was great. They always keep me in mind for temporary positions and full time work as well. They send out e-mails listing current openings. I would recommend them to someone who wants a more "personal" approach to recruiting and job placement. read more

WORTH 6 stars. Call me old school, but I believe that personal recommendations goes a long way, whether that of a friend or an owner of a staffing service. The difference in the customer service speaks volumes at Stansbury. This smaller firm takes pride in who is representing them and it shows. I have used Stansbury Jobs in the past when I needed office help (and a kickbutt assistant). I've also referred several well qualified, reliable but unfortunately out of work friends here. Why? Because I knew they'd be in good hands. I personally shun huge staffing outfits because they typically care for only short term profitability. Stansbury Jobs is the opposite. A couple friends have now successfully been hired full time from the temp work they were offered from Grace Redman, who is the sweetest and one of the sharpest female business owners I've ever met and whom I have a ton of respect for. She has consistently been a pleasure to deal both professionally and personally. She takes the time to pre-qualify applicants so she can place highly competent people according to their skill level. I am not terribly surprised that my 100th yelp happens to be for Stansbury Jobs. They're 100% worth the call. read more

I have worked with Stansbury for the past 6 years. As a Hiring Manager and Office Manager, I am responsible for bringing in temps as needed, and I can always rely on Grace and her staff to assist with getting the best candidates in a timely manner. Stansbury Staffing offers quality staffing services and pays attention to your staffing needs by being selective in with the candidates that they present to you. Grace and her skilled team spend time to screen candidates and they listen to your specific needs to be ensure a "great fit" for your office. Stansbury Staffing is a professional and solid business partner, and I highly recommend them to both companies and job seekers. read more

This review is long overdue! If you're ready to make that career move or looking for top candidates, this is the place to be. I've been on both ends and Grace has been an angel with my needs. Just give Stansbury a call and find out what they can offer, it's worth the time. I'm sure you'll get some good points and tips if anything. read more

Great agency. Grace was a great help and Allison at the front desk was always very helpful. Great team. If they could get direct deposit, that would be really helpful. read more

Stepping out in faith to start my own life coaching business, I was not totally prepared financially. I was looking for an agency that would work with my needs. After speaking to Ms. Grace Redman I knew I was in the right place. Stanbury staffing works with you. They are continuously searching job assignments that are specific to your needs. When ever there's a job they feel fits your specific needs they personally reach out to you to make sure it's the right fit. I have been on several short term job assignments. I must say the quality of their clients are top notch. While on the job Stansbury staff personally called me to make sure everything was going well. If your looking for short term, long term or permanent employment Stansbury staffing is the place to go. I am so proud and happy to be a part of this wonderful agency. God bless you Grace read more

Grace is quite possibly the best recruiter I have ever worked with. She immediately had an assignment in mind for me during my interview. She took the time to go over my skills, get to know me as a person, and found me one of the best work environments that I could hope to find. Grace takes time out of her day to call and just check in to see how things are going with me. Her friendly and helpful manner set her apart from from other recruiters. I will recommend Grace to everyone I know. read more

Friendly enough staff but the onboarding process left me puzzled. They wanted me to do multiple phone calls, an onsite meeting and 3 hours of computer testing for roles that are rarely over $20/hour. My time spent scheduling, talking to them and taking computer tests accounted for about a day of work, and I didn't hear from them during the process - no follow-up. The whole thing fizzled out after about three weeks and I decided to let it go. Other staffing firms are doing video calls in lieu of onsite meetings, which I think would be effective for them. It shouldn't take more than a day or two to get someone into the pipeline, and there shouldn't be so many steps if you provide a resume and articulate what you want. On wages in this area, I can't imagine working for - or paying someone - such a low rate. At one point a recruiter asked me if $14/hour was okay. Tradespeople are paid much more for construction, landscaping, cleaning, etc., so what they are offering is truly poverty level. I got the feeling that they wouldn't speak up to a client for more reasonable wages or market a candidate's value, so pay attention to that. Overall the firm is friendly and traditional: they take what they can get and expect you to as well. read more

Props to Stansbury Staffing!!! Grace... you are AWESOME!!! I got a temp job so quick and I am hoping it becomes permanent! Fingers are crossed!! The Stansbury Staffing employees are very efficient. They are on top of their game!! I highly recommend you use them to find a job for you!!! Tell your friends... I know I did! read more

It was a pleasure to work with Stansbury while I was living in the Bay Area. Haley was my recruiter and had an opportunity for me within a week after interviewing. Everyone who works there is lovely, helpful and caring. They have great connections and I enjoyed my assignment. I signed up for Grace's newsletter, which delivers gems of wisdom to my inbox from time to time. I would recommend Stansbury to anyone looking for work! read more

I worked a little bit with Stransbury Staffing and all i can tell you that they are super friendly, cooperative, professional and helpful. Emily is the best. She is attentive, helpful and really care about the person's benefit. She also very good listener and always try to chose the best for her candidates as she will always go above and beyond to make sure that clients and applicants will get superior service and the best pay rate. If you are looking for a quality staffing agency, I advise everyone to o work with Stransbury staffing because they are the best in my opinion. read more

I have recently started working for Stansbury Staffing and they have been wonderful. They had me apply for a direct hire position right away. Unfortunately due to human error on my part I did not get the job. From the horror stories I have heard from others about these types of agencies, I assumed that I would not get a call for any temporary work after my mistake on the direct hire. To my complete delight I got a call from Amanda (who is amazing) asking me if I was interested in a temp. job next week! Then this morning I received another email about a three week temp. job. Amanda and the staff at Stansbury Staffing are definitely worth working for. read more

This year I had a huge life transition. Entering into the job market after many years in a job that was not a good fit. Many unexpected life changes that have changed my life. Grace has helped me tremendously. She had given me assignments with great companies and great people to work with and for. Kept me employed and has searched for good fits so that my talents are an asset to the company I work with and show that Stansbury cares. Grace and her kind, patient, and caring staff make me feel good about what I do for a living. So, in addition to getting a paycheck, I feel productive and valued as a worker. Times are still tough to find work, but it is tough for companies too. Having been on the other end, I know it takes talent to find the right fit between employees and companies. Grace has that talent to make good matches with kindness and caring toward both the companies and temporaries . I have great respect for her and the caring staff at Stansbury. If feel very fortunate to work with Grace and the wonderful people at Stansbury. read more

I have worked with a lot of recruiting companies but Stansbury Staffing is by far the very best I've worked with. It is because Grace is so carrying and understanding and always, always has something available when you really need a job. They keep all the information on file and unlike other agencies they help you prepare and get aquatinted with jobs, descriptions and requirements. I simply enjoy working with them. So in short, you will enjoy and benefit by working with Stansbury Staffing. read more

I have nothing but great things to say about Stansbury. I have been in contact with them over the past few years and the staff have always been super attentive and kind to me. I have never felt neglected which is a common sentiment with most recruiters these days! I was recently placed right away for a two week temp job in san mateo for a very reputable firm. Although I am looking for a permanent position, (which they are still helping me with,) it was very kind of Stansbury to consider me for their temp positions in the meantime which can be very helpful in networking for future potential employment that may open up. All in all my experience with Stansbury has been a great one and I look forward to continue working with them! :) read more

I've worked with Stansbury a couple of times and I have never been disappointed with a placement. The staff do a wonderful job of matching the placement to the person. Any staff with whom I have interacted have shown that they care about me as an individual candidate and my success. This culture is clearly created from the top down, and a sign of quality management of the organization. My current job, which I love, was as a result of a placement by Stansbury. If you are looking for placement I recommend this agency. read more

I recently had the pleasure of working with Grace Redman at Stansbury Staffing to fill an administrative position for one of my clients. Instead of simply inundating us with a large number of candidates, Grace sent us the resumes of just four carefully-screened (right personality, right skills, right compensation requirements) people, one of whom was a perfect fit for the job and was hired. Grace saved us a considerable amount of time and money that we would have had to spend listing the position, screening the candidates, and making offers. This was especially helpful for a very small company with no HR department and a lot to do. We plan to use Stansbury Staffing again when the need arises. read more

Stansbury Staffing is an outstanding establishment. I've been working with them since the beginning of 2015 and it has been truly fantastic. The staff is friendly, helpful and above all knowledgeable about their clients to provide an exceptional temping experience. Grace the owner is so amazing. She checks in with me throughout the assignments to make sure everything is going well. It is a personal touch that I hadn't received to this degree with the other temp agency I had worked with. She's been in business for 16 years and it shows! Thank you, Grace and Stansbury Staffing :) read more

My experience with Stansbury Staffing has been outstanding. Grace is extremely knowledgeable and fully committed to your success. She communicates effectively, and is always available for any questions or concerns. I am very appreciative of her guidance and support throughout my assignments. I would highly recommend Stansbury Staffing to anyone looking for a new job opportunity in San Francisco or San Francisco Peninsula area. read more

Stansbury was my knight in shining armor. Three months ago, the company I worked at went belly up very suddenly. I reached out to Stansbury and they totally saved the day. Their skilled team (particularly Grace and Anj) quickly secured some excellent temp positions that were near my home. Those positions helped keep me financially afloat until I found my next job. They were always courteous, prompt, and kind in their correspondence/payments. In particular, Grace turned out to be a tremendous source of encouragement during my job hunt. She really cares about helping people achieve their goals, and she had great concrete advice that helped me secure my new job. I enthusiastically recommend the services at Stansbury and am very grateful that I got the chance to work with them. read more

I trust Grace and her team's integrity. Having fielded (on the job) calls from recruitment firms for years, I was feeling that they were (as a group) a necessary evil. Contact with them left me with a skin condition, well, maybe just a condition. I think my sense of recruiters was and is true of many. It is not however true of Stansbury Staffing. Rather then feeling pimped out to their clients, I feel and am treated as though I were an important client. I'm grateful for their honor, candor and efforts on my behalf and look forward to being placed at the right time in the right place, by Stansbury. I wish them a thriving, succesful future; the market needs more Grace's, Amanda's, Libby's.... read more

Please note: This is a B2B review from IRA Services Trust Company. We are a financial company specializing in self-directed IRAs. Back in January of 2012 when we were interviewing staffing agencies, Grace impressed us with her fast and clear responses, her friendly and helpful manner, and her desire to build a long-term business relationship. After working with her and Stansbury Staffing for almost a year, these characteristics have continued to mark our interaction with them. We are also very happy with the people that they have sent us. In general we would describe them as well qualified for the assignments, eager to please, communicative, and on top of any issue that may arise. Thanks to Stansbury Staffing our company doesn't worry about staffing issues during the holidays or during tax time because we know that all we have to do is call them and they will take care of the rest. read more

I have known Grace Redman for many years and she rocks the job market! Stansbury Staffing is not your average place and Grace is not your average recruiter. She takes the time to sit down and talk to you about your wants and needs and makes the perfect fit within a company instead of just sending you out to everything she is working on in order fill a slot in any company. She is always professional, polite, and courteous but unlike most recruiters, she adds a personal touch, has a great personality and makes you feel special. Grace prides herself on the clients she serves (both from a company looking for someone and an EA looking for a company) and take great pleasure in her job. I highly recommend Grace and Stansbury Jobs! She has never let me down! read more
