More Than Just a Staffing Agency

I have worked with Halpin in several capacities – temporary assignments, temp-to-hire, payrolling and direct hire – and have been pleased with the results. I was especially happy that they were able to fill a high-level management position as a direct hire. I am confident in the candidates that are submitted, as they have taken the time to understand our culture and our machinery.

We were seeking a junior accountant to assist our company during tax season. Halpin first met with us to discuss our needs, then began submitting candidates for us to interview which suited our requirements. By working with their staff of recruiters it not only saved us time and money, but we were able to utilize the services of a quality candidate to handle the increased work load that occurs every year at this time. I would highly recommend Halpin for any professional staffing needs.

Halpin contacted me back in May of 2010 about a job opportunity. I had never heard of the employer previously and knew nothing about the electronics field. With a bit of apprehension because the position was something completely new, I accepted the role of Systems Assembler. After a year, I was hired in as a permanent employee. I continued to work hard in a few different areas of the plant before getting the opportunity to become a department lead in 2015. In parallel to acquiring this position, I began going to school for electrical engineering using the employer’s tuition reimbursement program. In November of 2018, I applied for and received a Production Supervisor position which is responsible for overseeing more than half of the employer’s manufacturing. I’m also one class away from receiving my electrical engineering degree!

I was searching for new opportunities in the southeast Wisconsin area. After working with a local management recruiting service for several months, I had not been on any interviews which seemed strange. Halpin had been recruiting for a Manufacturing Manager at a local foundry and machine shop in Racine. I arranged an interview with one of Halpin’s professional recruiters. Shortly after, I was scheduled to interview directly with their client. It was a tight competition for the position, but I was offered the role of Manufacturing Manager shortly after my interview. I appreciate the professionalism of Halpin and am glad they were able to assist me in securing this Direct Hire role! A few months into my new job the person I had been working with from the management recruiting service stopped in and asked me why I was at a foundry when I had die-casting experience. This told me that Halpin was willing to look outside the box for other possibilities besides die cast for me, which is how I secured this position.

Halpin has always been a great source for excellent temporary help. Their screening process and understanding of our business is well tuned with our needs in mind. In fact, over 72% of our staff started as temporary help from Halpin and as our company grew we were able to hire them on as full-time employees.

Our company has grown with them over the past 15 years and they’ve been a true asset for our labor needs. Their staff is excellent to work with and they really strive to find the right fit for our company.

Halpin supplies us with 70% of our work force during our busy season and has always came thru when needed. They are very responsive when we have last minute requests. Because of their dedication to make sure we are well staffed we are in our 3rd year partnering with Halpin to help us have another successful season.

Integrity, reliability and excellence are all attributes that solidify our business relationship with Halpin. We have worked together for over 6 years, and have found them to be conscientious, proactive and progressive in their approach to satisfying our needs.

I have been with Halpin for over three years. I was leery on using a staffing agency. I didn’t believe I would get a permanent position at a company. I was placed at a warehouse and it was not an easy position at first. I worked hard as I was coached by my recruiter. Later, I was hired into that company. I was permanently laid off due to the company shutting its doors. My recruiter contacted me right away to ask if I needed her to look for another position for me. It wasn’t long and Halpin had placed me again. I have currently been hired into a company that I love. Thanks to Halpin I was able to find my dream job.

For over ten years, our working relationship with Halpin has been more than just a client/supplier relationship. The recruiters at Halpin customize pre testing for our employees, based on our needs and requirements, which saves time and money when bringing on additional workforce. The staff is friendly and proficient with short term demands, as well as that hard to find CNC Machinist. I have been approached by other services throughout the years, but feel working with Halpin is truly a partnership. Halpin took the time to really get to know us and our business, which gave me the confidence to know that they will provide qualified individuals to fill our needs. Halpin is my “go to” when I need help!

Halpin partnered with us while we were experiencing a severe staffing shortage. Their staff went above and beyond to fill our open positions with qualified and solid personnel. Halpin has continued to provide outstanding service through the years since then, and we are happy to collaborate with them. If you are looking for a personable and professional staffing service that provides results, call Halpin!
