The employment landscape may have changed over the past few months, however hard work and a professional demeanor never go out of style.
A cross country move, an internet search and an open mind is what brought Adam B. to our attention. A strong work ethic, clear communication and a dedication doing a good job is what made him our choice for the Philly Temps & Perm employee of the Month for September 2020.
