Testimonials

Jenny Ducharme, Operations Administrator
At Mat Master we were looking for a positive, friendly, and reliable person to fill our accounting assistant position.  We approached Opportunities for Employment (OFE) and provided them with our job description.  

With their amazing training program and work coaches we were able to find Van.  OFE worked very diligently to ensure both Van and our company had all of the tools necessary for her to make a smooth transition into our work place.  They came out to meet with myself and Van on a couple of occasions and have been a great support.  

We look forward to our continued relationship with OFE and are thrilled to welcome Van to Mat Master.  We definitely recommend that employers contact OFE with their business needs and begin to develop a relationship with them!

I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for the OFE organization. I have had a successful relationship with the organization for many years. OFE has been an excellent resource in my search for Direct Support Workers at Simaril.

I have attended many employer forums. I am able to present on behalf of the agency and then offer mini interviews to those that are interested in applying. No matter who I work with at OFE I can trust that they are working with Simaril’s best interest in mind.Thank you to OFE for all the support that you have given me at Simaril. You have made my job easier by providing your services.

OFE has been a great source for finding quality work-ready candidates. Staff are very responsive in finding good candidates for our needs. Removing the need to sort through resumes has allowed us to focus on the interview process with quality candidates, and reduce the amount of time spent searching. They follow up with the candidates after they have been placed in a role. They check in with staff members to ensure the role and the expected outcomes are being met. It has been a great partnership and it is a resource we will continue use for our recruitment needs.
