Response from the owner · 3 months ago

Jennifer, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear you left feeling frustrated. Our onboarding process typically takes 60–90 minutes, which is why we stop starting new applications at 3:30 p.m. each day. This ensures applicants have enough time to complete the process without being rushed or asked to return midway through. Our team is always happy to provide guidance and troubleshoot technical issues, but we are not able to complete the computer-based onboarding on an applicant's behalf while assisting other applicants and clients. We appreciate your feedback and will continue striving to provide every applicant with a professional and respectful experience.

Snelling Staffing of Fort Smith has an A+ rating in my book. Todd always has work available for me in the industrial branch of the company and has always been polite, knowledgeable, and helpful. He is well-versed and has been in this line of work for years. Also, Miss Aurora and Miss Brittany in the clerical department are always proactive in finding employment opportunities and aligning candidates with the most relevant positions and roles, as well as working correspondence to get people set up with great interviews. They, too, are extremely helpful and experienced in their field. The entire staff is easy to talk to and committed to keeping Fort Smith employed! Thank you, Snelling!

The staff at Snelling have been nothing but helpful each encounter I’ve had. I broke my ankle months ago, leaving me limited with what work I am qualified to do. After a few weeks, I had been lined up with a wonderful opportunity for a new career by Tammy and started promptly! I had forgotten to leave this review sooner, but recently had a mixup with submitting my timesheet appropriately. The solutions offered were nothing but exceptional and Jacqui and Aurora handled the issue expeditiously. With some patience, the women here will support you by aligning your experience with thriving opportunities and the experiences to grow and learn.

Response from the owner · 9 months ago

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this thoughtful review! We’re truly grateful you trusted Snelling during such a challenging season, and we’re so happy Tammy was able to match you with a great opportunity and a fresh start in your career. We also appreciate you mentioning your recent timesheet mix-up - Jacqui and Aurora will be thrilled to hear their quick support made a difference. Our team works hard to make sure every employee feels supported, heard, and taken care of. Thank you for your kind words and for being part of the Snelling family. We’re cheering you on in your continued growth and success!
