Working with Bluebird Staffing and my recruiter Sean has been great. Bluebird has made everything easy for me in my new assignment. Sean is very responsive and transparent and makes it known he is available at any time to talk/help. Definitely recommend them as a company, and hope to continue working with them and Sean in the future.
