“I have been working in HR for a couple of years. Partnering my manufacturing companies in Lincoln, CA with Certified’s recruiting power has been a game changer. When I’ve been unable to recruit hard working assemblers, Certified comes through with well-vetted and satisfactory performers (need 4 people? they got you! need 25? they got you!). Thanks to them, my companies have been fully staffed, even through the 2020-2022 work challenges. Most of the time we hire our temps after they fulfill their hours. However, if & when issues have come up, Certified has us covered. I highly recommend you use this agency.”
– Shelly C., Cold Plunge Manufacturer

“The staff at Certified Employment Group are amazing and easy to work with. They do an excellent job finding high quality candidates. [Certified] has helped me fill multiple positions, and has made the process easy and efficient while being incredibly thorough. Working with [Certified] and the staff at Certified Employment Group in Santa Rosa has been by far the easiest and most successful experience I have ever had working with a staffing agency to find incredible people!”
– Christopher R., Wine, Beer, Food and Pharmaceutical Industries Supplier

“I worked with [Certified] to hire a temporary staff member and I was thoroughly impressed at the quick response time in finding a number of top notch people, and answering my questions. We are very, very happy with Diana, who is professional, punctual and conscientious. I highly recommend Certified.”
– Tracie S., Health Care Services

“We have been working with Certified for well over three years. They are a great staffing agency. [They] are always so helpful and have staffed us with right people for our business needs. Only once in three years did we have an issue with an employee and they were very quick to resolve it!”
– Julie M., Education Publishing and Assessment Services

“Working with [Certified] and the team at CEG has been wonderful! This was our first time working with a temp agency and I have to say it will definitely not be our last. Our temp is fantastic and so is CEG! I can’t say enough good things about this experience.”
– Susan D., Health Care Services

“Our company has relied on [Certified] for the past several years to provide excellent seasonal staffing for us. They go above and beyond to find the best fit for our needs. I’ve also used them to find direct-to-hire positions on both staff and management levels and always receive quality candidates. They also were a tremendous help to find work for my teenager who needed a job. They will continue to be on my “speed dial”!”
– Katy D., Wine Industry Supplier

“I would like to express my appreciation on how hard “[Certified] worked for me on this project. I started it with another agency and ended with you guys. I will go to you first for any needs in the future.”
– Mike F., Wine Cork and Glass Supplier

“Fantastic skilled great secretary-computer person who posted the necessary code on my opening appellate brief. Sweet and caring. I’m using Certified again for sure.”
– Peter K., Legal Services

“I have worked with Certified Employment Group for many years. [The recruiter] has always provided excellent customer service. She listens to what our needs are and works to find a candidate who is a good fit for the position we need to fill. [Certified] and her staff are truly a pleasure to work with. They are responsive to our needs and easy to work with from an administrative perspective as well.”
– Lisa H., Rail Transit Services

“By the way, in 5 years I have not been wowed by temp work and always felt it was a necessary evil dealing with people who don’t really seem like they want to work. The crew this week plus your attentiveness has made this experience actually somewhat enjoyable. I think yesterday was the first time I laughed out loud that I couldn’t keep up with the speed of the workers, something simple, but was foreign in the past. I look forward to the next opportunity to use your service.”
– Joe N., Winemaking Services

“[Certified] has been my “GO-TO” person for hiring Temps on a regular basis. I have been very pleased with the candidates [they] present to me and have hired numerous candidates that have turned into regular full-time employees. If you want a quick delivery, quality candidates, a great attitude (easy to work with), and accountability – HIRE [CERTIFIED]!”
– Michelle M., Cladding Construction Services

“After much research we decided to use Certified to fill a temp to hire position at our company. They were very helpful in finding us someone right away. The person they recommended was very professional and eager to start right away. So far we’ve been very pleased with everything they have had to offer our company. We will not hesitate to use them again.”
– Kanani S., Pest Control Services

“Working as an office manager for a nonprofit that is seasonal work we used Certified Employment Group each year to find and hire great workers. We were always pleased with the workers that were sent out to us…I will continue to use them as the needs arise!!”
– Melissa C., Non-Profit Educational Organization

“I have had the pleasure of working with Certified Employment the past few years. They have always been professional and friendly and worked hard to locate the perfect person for our specific needs, be it a temporary or temp to perm hire. I have had the occasion to call very late in the day for a temp for the next morning and they are quick to get someone for us. They are customer service oriented and very professional! I have worked with other staffing agencies in the past and have never been treated so well. Every time I contacted their office, there was always a friendly staff member to take care of me. They don’t just send a body to fill the slot, they take pride in sending the right person out. I would recommend Certified Employment Group to any manager that needs a qualified individual for their team and enjoys being taken care of through the entire process. I will continue to use them for all of my staffing needs in the future.”
– Beatriz M., Non-Profit and Public Interest Organization

“I have been working with Certified for a few years now and it has been a very enjoyable experience. Their staff has consistently supplied us with candidates that have been a great fit for our organization. We have even been able to convert some of their contractors to become our employees. That in itself is a huge compliment as to how Certified continually listens to their customer’s needs. I truly anticipate that our working relationship will be even better in the coming years and that we’ll continue to use Certified as one of our primary vendors of temporary help.”
– Richard A., Financial Cooperative / Credit Union

“We have been working with Certified Employment Group for several years. They have provided us with temporary help as well as direct hire placements and the level of their candidates has always been above average. What makes them different from other agencies is when they say they don’t want to just send over a “body” they mean it. Almost every firm will tell you that, but most don’t live up to it the way Certified Employment Group does. We needed to fill administrative positions in the Santa Rosa area about two years ago and since we were new to that area I called Certified for a local referral. I was happy to learn that they also had an office in Santa Rosa and again, the customer service was excellent. We were successful in filling those positions and we continue to work with the Santa Rosa office today. I would recommend Certified Employment Group without hesitation. You won’t be disappointed.”
– Sue D., Construction Services

“We have worked with Certified Employment group for more than 10 years. They have always been in tune with our needs and always strive to send us candidates who match the needs of our company. I would not hesitate to refer other employers to Certified Employment Group.”
– Carole H., Science Education

“Certified has never failed to provide me with qualified candidates, in a timely manner for my openings. They are one of the best agencies I have ever worked with.”
– Linda F., Aerospace Engineering

“I am always extremely happy and grateful for the quick response we receive from Certified. They remain to date the only service we call upon. The staff is friendly, professional and prompt.”
– Laurie L., Law Firm

This is by far my favorite agency to work for … everyone is so very nice and made me feel very welcome there. They never lead me to believe the position was more than it actually was. They have been the first agency that was completely honest and up front about the length of the assignment. There are too many that tell you what you want to hear to get the position filled for the commission. I felt like I had known [the recruiter]  my entire life when in fact I had just met her 60 minutes prior. She was always there for me!

– Robin E., Assignment Employee

Certified Employment Group is like a 5-star hotel or a 3-star Michelin restaurant. They go above and beyond to make the process easy and convenient for you. They will treat you like family and check up on you to make sure everything is going smoothly, including their team as well. They respond quickly, and they’re very patient. I don’t know what else to say, but they’re great!! I started my new job a week ago, thanks to them and their team!

– Starr B., Direct Hire Candidate

I am thrilled to give Certified Employment Group a 5-star review! They helped me secure a fantastic customer service job that perfectly meets all my expectations. [The recruiter]  was professional, attentive, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. Their dedication to matching candidates with the right opportunities truly stands out.

I had a wonderful experience with the employment group. They were extremely helpful with all the paperwork involved in signing up, making the process smooth and stress free. The staff made me feel very comfortable and at ease while I was in their office. They also followed up to check how the job went, showing they truly care about their clients. Overall , the team was very polite and professional. I would highly recommend this employment group to anyone looking for job assistance.

– Lisa J., Assignment Employee

Certified Employment Group is a great resource for those who are looking for employment. Staff is very professional and helpful and always happy to help. Staff is super nice, helpful, and treat everyone with respect. Recommending them to everyone who’s in need of the job. 100% satisfied!!

– Tatyana P., Direct Hire Candidate

Certified was one of the first temp agencies I met with after achieving my paralegal certification and to be honest I wasn’t sure what to expect. I had gone to other temp agencies in the past but I was never really impressed because they seemed happy to meet me but then I never heard from them again. With Certified it was different from the start. At my first meeting, [the recruiter] spent a half hour walking me through my resume and how I could make improvements to it. Thanks to Certified, I’ve been able to work with law firms and companies across the Bay Area that would have otherwise overlooked my resume completely. If you are looking for a place that is going to go the extra mile for you and always has your best interest at heart, look no further than Certified.
– Christopher J., Candidate

I highly recommend this company.
If you have any employment needs please contact this company.
They have a very talented and amazing Recruiter team.

Not only did I get a great job within a couple of weeks my husband did too. We have worked with 4 other companies in town and not one has done anything for us.
This company I give 5 stars for professionalism, dedication and class.
Thank you again to the fabulous team.

They are STARS….”
– Michelle M., Candidate

I’ve been affiliated with Certified for several years. Every time I contact [them] they are very friendly, open and accessible. Even without asking, they have sent me job referrals or relevant information. I’m registered with quite a few agencies around town and none of them remember me. They not only always remember me, but remember my background and interests. A high end staffing firm – with a high end staff – that Santa Rosa is very lucky to have!
– Kimberlee F., Candidate

As sometimes happens, I found myself unemployed after my last employer eliminated my position after restructuring. I started sending out resumes and contacted several staffing agencies in San Francisco. I interviewed at 3 different agencies including Certified. While the other two agencies left me feeling underwhelmed, my recruiter at Certified made me feel motivated and optimistic.

A few days after I met with my recruiter, she called and had scheduled an interview for me. I was stunned and excited at how quickly she had a potential position for me. Two weeks after I had first met with them, I had already started temping with the company I had interviewed with! Not only am I grateful at how quickly she found me a position, but the company she placed me with was everything I was looking for (positive, friendly, with room for growth). After a month of temping, I was informed that they wanted to offer me a permanent position with the company!

I would say the main difference between Certified and other staffing agencies is that they genuinely care about the people they place and the companies they place them with. They even dropped off cookies to my boss and I, just because. All in all I simply cannot say enough good things about my experiences with Certified. I highly recommend their services!

– Henriette P., Candidate

[The recruiters]  were very supportive, enthusiastic, & thorough with all the help they gave me and the opportunities they presented to me.

In addition, they polished a drab, old resume of mine into one that I would have hired if I was the hiring manager!

Great work & I look forward to many years working with Certified Employment.

– Hal H., Assignment Employee

I wanted to acknowledge Certified Employment Group. I was in the middle of closing my store and needed to supplement my income on a part time basis. [They] found me a job immediately. I found the office staff to be very professional, caring and friendly. I was very impressed with the knowledge of local businesses and community of the staff and the devotion to help others seek employment opportunities. I have since then found a permanent position with the guidance and support of the staff, and I am very appreciative of all Certified did to assist me in my time of need.
– Alicia M., Direct Hire Candidate

Certified Employment Group has been my first and best experience in getting work during this time of uncertainty. I was recently laid off this past January and was desperate for a new role. I found an open position on LinkedIn and immediately applied!

Long story short… I was placed in a role that was perfect for my skillset by [Certified] and the rest of the team and they made the process extremely transparent and efficient. I definitely recommend working with this company for all of your career needs.

Thank you [Certified] and team!

– Marco C., Assignment Employee

I was referred to Certified by my former employer. Certified’s staff were friendly and helpful. At a very stressful time in my life, they made me feel better about my financial and job situation. I believe the staff went above and beyond their job duties, assisting me with my resume and giving me leads for other job opportunities outside of their clientele base. I would highly recommend Certified to any business and employee looking for work.
– Billy D., Candidate

This staffing agency is so efficient will go above and beyond for you! [Certified] went the extra mile as a team to help me get employed. They made it so easy and I was working within 3 days. Thank you guys for being so quick and efficient and most of all friendly and kind through the process!! You guys rock!
