SJW has been providing wholistic employment services for over 35 years. All a client needs to utilize our free services is 2 forms of ID (per I-9) and a willingness to work. We continue to meet clients where they are at both our Phoenix and Mesa offices without a referral or appointment.
Because we were able to see over 10,000 new clients last FY, we were able to transition to only supporting direct hire employment. This means that assisting those who have obtained quick employment through contract or temp to hire staffing is no longer promoted or supported at SJW. We have transitioned to our Preferred Business Partner (PBP) model where we work with local businesses to promote quality long term direct hire employment. This not only helps businesses fill their open positions with qualified applicants, but helps our clients get in front of hiring managers in a timely manner.
Our PBP’s are also able to refer new hires to SJW for resources and have the ability to refer their team members suffering from housing insecurity to our Workforce Villages program. Should there be any reduction in workforce, our PBP’s can refer their staff back to SJW for assistance with new employment opportunities. It can be frustrating and time consuming for businesses that utilize staffing companies to fill positions or online job search platforms. We are looking to create a new connection to marry our clients to these opportunities to build a better community.
We currently have 35 PBP’s and are looking to build this out to 100 over the next 12 months. If you know of a business we can reach out to please contact:
