Testimonials
Senior Vice President
Bank
“Our Human Resources Department recommended Burnett Accounting Specialists to help us fill an open Credit Analyst position. I was somewhat skeptical about using a staffing company to fill an important position for us, but the Burnett team jumped in immediately and asked for the characteristics and experience levels we were looking for. We received several resumes to fill the open position and began interviewing the same week. We quickly found the candidate we were looking for, brought him on board, and have been very pleased with the results. Shortly thereafter, we needed to fill another analyst position with a slightly different skill set. Once again, Burnett quickly got us the requested resumes and set up interviews. We filled that position in a week and have been extremely happy with the results. I am pleased to recommend Burnett to anyone in need of timely performance in presenting pre-qualified candidates for temporary or full-time employment. I am completely confident they will surpass your expectations.”
