This past July, Lansing-based Personnel World held a ribbon cutting to celebrate the grand opening of its new office in Holt—the second location for President/CEO Kent Housler’s Lansing-based company.
Staffing Manager Paige Emmons says the business, which was founded in 1980, is continually growing and needed to expand to better serve its clients.
“We’re incredibly busy—and loving it,” she said. The expansion to Holt also allowed the company to widen its applicant pool, said Paige, adding, “We really enjoy Holt. It’s a great community.”
Personnel World staffs for technical, light industrial, craft/trade, legal, data processing and professional level positions as well as clerical, administrative and office positions. It can also provide temporary employees for long- or short-term projects, or “temp-to-hire,” which allows companies to try the employee on the job before offering permanent employment. Whatever the need, Personnel World will work with employers to custom-tailor a solution.
Paige says employers appreciate that Personnel World is a locally owned, family-owned company. It also personally interviews each job candidate onsite in order to better evaluate his or her fit for the position – another layer of direct service employers appreciate.
Personnel World works with companies with as few as two or three employees to those with hundreds, and has the reach to place employees throughout mid-Michigan and even across the country.
Personnel World is at 924 Centennial Way, Suite 400, Lansing, and 2049 Cedar St., Suite B, Holt, 323.3500, personnelworld.com
