Not Your Average Employment Agency

We were excited to learn all about Palmer Staffing Services and how they have gotten where they are today, so we sat down with the owner, Peter McChesney.

The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that makes Palmer Staffing Services stand apart from its competitors. Peter told us about how they offer a personal touch and treat people like more than a number. He said:

“I think that we treat people really well, and that starts with our internal team. We hire people that care and want to treat people right. You have various companies that treat people like a number instead of with a personal touch, but here, they feel that touch, and we have a true desire to help people.”

Palmer Staffing Services is also known for its fantastic staff. Peter told us:

“We are truly thorough and vet quality people. We have a high standard of candidate that we like to represent, and we have a great team. The tenure of our staff is unusually high in this industry. As a whole, our team has great tenure. They know the clients and are good to the candidates.”

When we asked Peter about the Palmer Staffing Services business mission, he said:

“Follow the Golden Rule: treat people how you want to be treated… It’s just about treating people well and being honest with them. If we think it is tough to find them a job, we’ll tell them. We will tell people to reach out to other companies to help them out. We have the longest guarantee in the business, which is a six-month unconditional guarantee with our candidates. So, if it isn’t the right fit, we will stand by our guarantee.”

Building Success And Practicing The Golden Rule

There are many businesses out there that are looking to build as impressive a reputation as Palmer Staffing Services has managed to. We asked if Peter could share any expert advice with these companies. Here’s what he had to say:

“Practice the Golden Rule, provide strong service with follow-through, and follow up. You need to prioritize customer service.”


Congratulations to Palmer Staffing Services for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and special thanks to Peter for taking the time to speak with us!
