This agency was super easy to work with. My direct contact, Chase, was fantastic. I would recommend this agency and Chase to anyone asking for a company that will place you in the area you desire or help you to find your new path. Thank you!

Melissa and Devan were both amazing with helping me secure my current position. They were extremely responsive whenever I needed information about my next steps and provided me with all the necessary information I needed and then some. My current position is a perfect fit for what I want for my career and they helped me so much to achieve this. I highly recommend them both and Vaco for any of your staffing or employment needs.

I cant thank the Vaco team enough for helping me find a new career. Melissa and Devan are absolute rock-stars. They went above and beyond to learn about me, my career history, and what I was looking for in the next chapter of my life. Their personal touch separated them from their competitors. This team isnt trying to fill a job and move on to the next. They find a great fit for their client as well as their candidates. Im very blessed to have found them and would recommend them to anyone that wants to truly find a career that was meant for them!

I worked with Bart at Vaco and I would recommend his work to anyone needing to find or fill a position. He and Vaco connected me to opportunites in areas I would not have thought of and had me interviewing within a week. Thank you for everything Bart!

I worked with Olivia on a possible job lead and really enjoyed my experience with her and the rest of the team at Vaco. I highly recommended Vaco to anyone who is looking for a job. The staff is so easy to work with and clearly dedicated to their profession.

Dylan Sutton could not have been more helpful or done a better job at finding me the perfect position! He listened to me and helped me figure out what was most important to me in my next position, and then he was completely honest with me about the opportunities he presented to me. His honesty, transparency and hard work resulted in finding the perfect position for me and one that I love! I cannot say enough great things about Dylan! He went over and beyond for me!

Meaghan was so personable and understanding from our very first interaction! She helped me realistically prioritize my goals for my next career move, and she was very receptive and responsive to my questions and concerns. With a similar work experience to my own, Meaghans expertise was invaluable when assisting me in finding the right job for me. She was encouraging and supportive, and she was my advocate throughout the interview process! After my experience with Vaco through Meaghan, I highly recommend this company to all of my peers who are looking for a similar change.

I highly recommended Vaco to anyone who is looking for a job. Christina and the staff are so nice and dedicated. Not like these other job placement places who you talk to and then never hear anything else from them. They make sure they put you in a job that is not going to be another dead end. They even call and check on you from time to time to see if you are still enjoying your position that they helped you get. I have told all my friends who are looking for something different to give Vaco a call.

So thankful to Vaco and Nicole! From the very start she was thoughtful, encouraging and gave it to me straight. No fluff, no “we’re gonna do it but it never gets done”, she kept in constant communication with me and provided options for me with upfront expectations. I really appreciate this process because she was there assisting me the whole time! If I ever have to do it again I look forward to working with Nicole @ Vaco!

I worked with Hannah Tyra and she was the BEST recruiter I have EVER worked with -- in over 15 years. She got to know me and listened to what I wanted in a career. She provided job descriptions that matched what I wanted -- she didnt just past along any BA role to me. Again, she has been the best - I hope to work with her again in the future!

I was in a job search moving back to the Birmingham area, and Vaco sent me to my current employer on a temp position. Everyone on the Vaco team was very supportive and helpful! They always seemed concerned with my success, and it eventually became a permanent position that I still enjoy just as much as day one! Thank you Vaco!

I met with a young lady named Nicole Hawks back in February before the pandemic. I completed the application prior to coming in for the interview. We went over the basics. I completed the assessment that weekend as requested and I never heard back from her. No follow-up or nothing. This is the second time Ive met with this company and I have not had a good experience with them yet.

I highly recommend Vaco, Kathryn was amazing to work with! She presented the perfect opportunity for me that I would have never been able to identify on my own. She was always available to answer any questions and was extremely involved throughout the process.

I highly recommend this company. Dylan went above and beyond throughout my entire interviewing and hiring process. I am in Savannah, and even though the majority of his clients are in the Birmingham area, his dedication and thoroughness made it feel as if I was his only client. He landed me an absolute dream job and I could not be happier with the results.

I worked with Bart Marcum at Vaco and he provided great service. I felt like he was really taking the time to think through my needs and what would be a good fit for me rather than applying the same pressure that other recruiters have used on me.

I will forever continuing to highly recommend Vaco Birmingham to anyone and everyone. I first reached out to them a little over 5 years ago. They found me a perfect job within weeks of first reaching out to them and I was able to find a job in Birmingham like I was looking for. I loved my job but then life happened, I got engaged and moved back to Tuscaloosa. I reached out to them and Cille Robards contacted me and was able to find me absolutely what I was looking for! Yet again, Vaco Birmingham was able to provide me with my Dream Job. They guide you through the process so smoothly, and make it very easy, without wasting any of your time. :)

Vaco has been absolutely amazing while placing me into a career. They were by my side from the beginning to the end. Kathryn called to prep me for each interview, after her office hours. Anytime I had questions Kathryn was available. She provided email and phone number for text. I highly recommend Vaco!

I highly recommend Vaco Birmingham to any potential candidates or entities looking to hire local talent. Having worked with Vaco as both a candidate & hiring manager, I have always been impressed with their professionalism. Yvonne and team are first class people of integrity and can be easily seen when working with them during sometimes testy times with your company or professional career. I know my wife and I have greatly benefited for our 10 year relationship with Vaco.

VACO was very helpful and tremendously enthusiastic about helping place me in a new position. I valued their advice and experience throughout the entire process. Kathryn even answered text/emails while on vacation to help speed the transition along before I myself went on vacation.

I have had the pleasure of dealing with multiple people from Vaco. Everyone has always been so professional and nice. They have texted me after hours asking how my day was and have called me on the weekends to help prepare for interviews. They have placed me in front of multiple employers for many different interviews and got me my dream position. I would definitely recommend Vaco if you are ever in need of job.

Cille Robard reached out to me within 24 hrs. after registering on the Vaco Website. We had a very pleasant phone interview and she already had a position for me to look at. After a couple days she contacted me with yet another position which I interviewed for very quickly. She kept me updated in every way possible. The first position finally reached out to her for an interview. I was very very interested and wanted this job badly.Then came the Holidays, I just had a feeling this was the one. I reached out to Cille Robard once a week to see if there was any updates. I stayed positive and didnt give up. I even told her, Im not giving up yet. Low and behold, its Mid January 2020 and she contacts me with an offer from the job I so desperately wanted. She congratulated me like I was her closest friend. 😁 She said, patience is a virtue and I said, God is Good! Sarah at Vaco was kind enough to help me with some tax questions I had when filling out my Hiring packet.So to end my story. I give Vaco 5 out of 5 🌟 Cille Robard 100🌟 Sarah 99🌟 I will forever be Greatful!! I Highly recommend everyone to use Vaco for their Employment needs! 😁

Interviewed with Devan at Vaco to try to find a Medical Billing/Coding job. Not only was she great at giving me updates on the hiring process but she gave me great tips for my phone interview and my face-to-face. I am truly grateful for Vaco for helping my find a job in my field and allowing me to start working toward my goals. THANKS VACO!

VACO is the reason that I have a job today. I struggled to find a job out of college due to lack of experience but VACO had me employed in a matter of weeks. Along with that, the employees truly have the customers best interest in mind. From interview prep to daily check-ins, this place has it all and will find you a job.

Review №38

I submitted my resume to VACO about two weeks ago. I didnt hear anything from them until I sent them a email complining about their failure to keep me informed of their progress . Their office manager wrote that given the volume of candidates that submit resumes on a daily basis, we are not able to follow up with each individual who submits a resume. After serving the public for over 40 years , I do know that the customers number one complaint is the failure of those providing the service to maintain communications with them. Thats their job. Sounds like VACO needs to hire additional agents. Until then, look for assistance elsewhere.

I highly recommend working with VACO. I am a recent college graduate who was seeking employment when VACO contacted me. The meeting was short but informative. They mentioned several job opportunities that they would look into on my behalf. Within a week I had an amazing job offer thanks to VACO. I cant recommend them enough. They are all very friendly and professional.

VACO has now helped me find the perfect position for my skill set (accounting/finance). Bart Marcum took the time to find out what was important to me in an employer, and matched me with the perfect company.

I worked with two different recruiting firms in the Birmingham area and Im literally giving the same review on both. They were that similar in experience. I give them two stars out of five because while there were no results for myself, I still understand the process however, feel it could be better.You must first understand these recruiting firms are not really working for you, but are working for their business clients. So even though they give you a nice, warm speech about how they are here for you, in reality assisting you is secondary to assisting their paying clients. This is somewhat fair because that is how they make their money.Again, experience was very similar at the two firms I visited. You fill out paperwork, which is basically like completing a employment application. You will be scheduled to come in for an interview so they can go over your employment history and get a feel for the type of job you are seeking. They are also using this meeting to pre-interview you for their clients. Staff at all two locations were very nice and friendly. The recruiters are very bubbly and fun.At the end of the meeting, the recruiters will tell you how they will get to work attempting to place you with a matching career with one of their clients. This is kinda where the communication stopped for me. Beyond this initial interview, I received no communication in the following three months. The only call I did receive (from one firm), was a few days after visiting to tell me a job I was initially matched with had changed the job description and the pay scale was well below what I was seeking. Barring that single contact, radio silence. I was even told by one firm that after submitting my info to a place or two they would follow up with me regardless of the results to let me know how things were progressing. That call was not received.I am sure the firms have worked well for some, just not for me.

I highly recommend VACO for all of your recruiting and job seeking needs! I’ve worked with VACO on both fronts - TWICE as a job seeker and once when working to find employees - and can honestly say you cannot go wrong. Their team is extremely well trained and experienced and they seem to hire only the best. I worked with VACO when trying to find a job in Birmingham while I was working in at Atlanta as well as finding a job when I­ was ready for a new journey here in Birmingham. I’ve worked with two different recruiters and they both were incredibly pleasant to work with and maintained a professional demeanor while also being extremely approachable.Don’t waste any more time applying for positions on your own when you can give VACO a call. They ensure that the process goes smoothly and they also work with some of the best clients in Birmingham. I wouldn’t have found my dream job without them!
