Having Nick join the team at Oddball Workshop was a simple decision for us that has had a lasting impact on our staff and our customers. Nick is a bright spark of energy with a smile that lights up the room! He has taught us so much about ourselves and our business in the time he has been with us. The support BEST provided to both Nick and our company while he learned the role, as well as the ongoing support, has been amazing. We very much feel a part of the BEST family.- Carey Bridgman - ODDBALL WORKSHOP
Trauma Tech has been extremely happy working with BEST employment services and Coty in particular. Coty launders the bandages we use in our classrooms and folds them in a specific way to fit in our First Aid kits. Coty does an excellent job every week. Not only is she reliable and consistent, but her charm brightens the mood of our office with every visit. Trauma Tech is proud to have given Coty an opportunity for employment and would definitely recommend that other businesses work with BEST employment services. We couldn’t be happier with our experience.- Blake Steinson, President - TraumaTech
