Kerry Garner, Executive Assistant to Vice President of Membership & Marketing, Greater Tampa Chamber of Commerce
"I truly can't thank Holly and all of the ladies at Tomlin enough for helping me with my job search. After leaving NYC and my dream career behind me in order to move back home and pursue my Master's degree, I found myself in Tampa during the holiday season. Right before accepting a permanent job, I got a call from Brenda Mueller telling me she thinks they found the perfect fit for me in the non-profit sector, where I was hoping to begin building the foundation for my future career. I accepted that position and am now working at the Greater Tampa Chamber of Commerce. During the last eight months here I have met some of the most amazing people in our community and built professional relationships that I hope will last a lifetime. I truly love my new job and enjoy going into work every day - not to mention I get to work with Holly on a weekly basis!"

Jean Olsen, Facilities Manager, Syniverse Technologies
"I enjoy doing business with Tomlin, and appreciate what Brenda Mueller brings to her job. She is always so thorough and caring, no matter what position we are placing. Thank you, again."

Melinda Tyler, USF College of Public Health, Occupational Medicine
"After working for over 20 years and never being truly happy at my job, I decided for my 40th birthday that it was time that I found the place that I really wanted to be. During my interview, Lori Barndollar set my mind at ease by assuring me that she would do everything possible to find the perfect fit for me. Before I left that day, I had my first temporary position. After a few days I knew that this job was not for me, and Lori went to work to find me a new placement. By the end of January, I was placed in a position at the University of South Florida; and, even though my first day was a bit crazy, by the end of my first week I knew that I had found my home. I have been here now for over a year and have never been happier in a job. Thank you, Lori and the Tomlin agency, for all that you did for me."

Jody Swanson, H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute
"The Cancer Center has used Tomlin Staffing Services for over twelve years and they have always provided us with the highest level of service. The temporaries that Tomlin has sent to us have in many cases become permanent staff members at Moffitt. Tomlin's staff has always responded to our needs promptly and in a very professional manner."

Joann With, Neurological Surgery, USF Physicians Group
"I have worked with Tomlin for the past four years and have been very pleased with the high level of professional and personal service received. Early in our business relationship, Tomlin took the time to understand our business and office personalities. This early understanding has resulted in Tomlin consistently identifying employee candidates who have both the technical and personal skills we demand."

H. Wingfield Hughes, President, Forrester-Smith
"Thank you, Holly, for the tremendous service your company has provided to Forrester-Smith over the last 10 years. We have successfully hired several of your people. Thanks for a job well done and I look forward to continuing to build our mutually beneficial relationship."

Our employees say:

Autumn Widdoes
"I graduated from my M.A. program in May 2007. Just recently, I have been offered a permanent job in New York City and I'm very excited about it. Thanks again for all the opportunities you afforded me (and all the necessary training and skills I learned) while working for Tomlin in Tampa periodically over the years. I am grateful. If I am ever in Tampa for a long period of time, I will be sure to stop by and say hello to you (Lori Goldsmith) and your staff."

Artesia Sanders
"I am so thankful to you [Lori Goldsmith] for trusting me to represent Tomlin at H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center. You have always listened to me and have tried to nurture me along the way; helping me to understand the workforce. I appreciate all the advice you have given me and I also am grateful for knowing that I have not only a career advisor at Tomlin, but a friend. It is my sincere hope that you will continue to be able to help others as you have helped me to find my way. I am now a part of a 'family.' We laugh, we talk, we compliment each other, and most of all, we respect each other. This truly is the way everyone should feel when the rise in the morning to go to work - 'I'm going to be with my extended family.' "

Barbara Jackson
"I really appreciate all the help you [Brenda Mueller] have given me so far. I recently visited another staffing company and it really showed me what a professional you are - you make me feel like a person and not just a number. You took the time to really talk with me and listened to my answers - you didn't just type my responses into the database and push me out the door. Thank you again!"

Prima Hower
"I still can't thank Tomlin enough for helping me find my dream job. I am now Assistant to the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs at USF College of Nursing supporting the Graduate Program. Never in my wildest dreams did I consider myself able to find this level job with 30 years of floral design experience to speak of! I recommend your staffing agency so highly. Thanks for all your help."

Nancy Warnke
"I am very excited about the opportunity and I want to say thank you for all your efforts. I wanted you to know that of all the staffing agencies I worked with during my search, you far exceeded them all. You (Melanie Gibb) are a very gracious lady and you made me feel like I was important and that my search for a new career was just as important. I will definitely recommend you to other people looking for employment."

Deborah Serrano
"I appreciate the pleasant, professional and competent way that every contact at the Tomlin office has handled my needs concerning assignments. Payroll and direct deposit were consistently handled quickly and efficiently. As individuals and as a company, they excel in their field. If I ever need the services of an employment agency again, I would run to Tomlin's door."

Rich Stremmel
"After finding myself out of work for the first time ever, I went to see more than one placement service. Each company I visited promised personalized service, but I soon realized that this was just not the case. I was very dismayed by their performance. Tomlin Staffing, however, delivered on their promise of personalized service. I feel that they really took an interest in me and went the extra mile in finding something to fit me rather than something to fit them."

Ann Gordon
"Out of all the staffing agencies I have worked with, I have never been treated more kindly than I've been by the Tomlin Staff. I was a temporary for almost seven months and never once had a problem. I always received my check on time. Everyone knew who I was and if they did not I was treated with unconditional kindness. They found the perfect position to fit my most demanding requests. On Secretaries Week, I was personally visited by Lori Barndollar (Branch Administrator) and was given a card. It was amazing to be recognized. I received 'Temp of the Quarter' and was again visited by Lori who honored me with her presence, a certificate and a gift. I could have cried it was so sweet. Fortunately my two sisters are moving back next week and the first place I will bring them is to Tomlin Staffing. I'm sure they will have a great experience also."

Alison Alexis, 1999 Tomlin Temporary of the Year
"Working with Tomlin has been a wonderful experience for me. It has given me opportunities to gain a first-hand feel for the culture of many companies in a variety of industries. By being a part of each organization, I could make informed decisions on whether I wanted to pursue permanent employment with them. With and throughout each assignment, Tomlin has shown constant support of my career goals and personal needs as their representative, as well as showing concern for the needs of their client. 'A Happy Family' is how I would describe Tomlin; I always felt that I had someone in my corner looking out for my interests and me. I could never say 'Thank you' enough to the wonderful and caring women at Tomlin!"
