We are celebrating 25 years of success because you needed our help and allowed us to use our talent and technology to bring you the best people that fit your organization. In 1999, Jane Allen started Smart Work Network because businesses struggled to search for candidates and interview them well enough to know they were a long-term fit for the organization. Today, our goal is the same! With Jane’s innovation and new age technology, our talented staff plays a significant role in our client’s search for the right candidate.
We get people, and desire to place them with clients where they thrive and succeed. The cost of hiring mistakes are too high from recruiting to onboarding. We reduce the risk of these unfortunate errors and save both the organization and candidate the pain of poor fit.
Our Core Values:
Integrity – Honesty – Collaboration
