Testimonials

This is Peak Performers.

★★★★★

“I would like to provide written notice due to successfully completing an employee background check and acceptance of the Purchaser job offered at the Texas Department of Public Safety. I can’t thank you and the people at Peak Performers enough for the opportunity that you all provided me and how helpful you were this last year. If you need anything else from me, please let me know. Thank you so much again.”

“I moved to Austin recently (mid-June) and was overwhelmed by the prospect of finding employment. I saw a listing on the TWC website for a data entry position that paid pretty good. I was kind of skeptical at first, but proceeded to go to the job fair. Two weeks later, I was selected for the job and started a job with the state. When that job was over, I called in for three days before I got an offer for another position and the day that THAT job ended, I got an offer to return to the original job and was later hired as a permanent employee. I really like all the staff that I have encountered, and they have all been so helpful, caring and professional. Thanks so much!”

“After taking a few tests and interviewing, they were able to put me to work in two days for the Department of Rural Affairs and I was even able to get a raise after 3 months.”

“All the people that work there are very kind and sweet, and they really act as a support center: they not only offer good advice but will also connect with you on a personal level.”

“I wanted to put in some good words overall, for each of the temps that came to help me out. They were all hard-working, friendly, capable and reliable employees, and I would definitely recommend that you please place them as soon as you can if they continue to be in your employ. Thank you for sending them! Have a great weekend!”

“The company that I worked for closed its doors about eight months ago. I put my resume out and was called by Renee at Peak Performers. I started working for he state immediately as a contractor. This has now led to full time employment with the state. Renee and the others at Peak have always been responsive, encouraging and helpful. Even though I was leaving them to take full time employment, they were happy for me to get the job.”

“Austin has a massive talent pool to draw from, so if you’re new in town or are seeking a new job, Peak Performers can place a person with office skills into a temporary job – with the state. The staff here is super nice and will place candidates into a setting that’s a decent fit. They placed me into two different temp jobs that were very decent and a good match with my skills. Send in your resume, call every day, and Peak Performers will help you get a job. They did for me.”

“Will update after going further through the process but can say that I have worked with staffing agencies in the past, both in Austin as well as Denver. This is the first agency that treats you like a human and really seems to have your best interests in mind instead of throwing you at a job because they have one only for it to be a horrible fit. My consultant really listened to what type of work I was looking for and explained their whole process….First impression has been very positive.”

“Thank you so much for what you all did for me…I am proud to work for Peak Performers, a company that has always listened to my concerns and tried to help solve them in a positive and constructive way. I look forward to a long relationship with you and will always serve you with respect and honor in the work place.”

“I have been presented an offer for an HHSC position that will bring me in full fold as a state employee. I want to say thank you to Peak, for I probably would not have gotten this new position, if you had not placed me within DADS. I have very much enjoyed my time with DADS and the team has been great to work with, but the change in salary and benefits is key for me and my family.”

“I want to thank you for the wonderful opportunity Peak Performers has given me to grow my skills in the workplace. The experience that I have gained these past 11 months has led to a new job opportunity as a permanent employee with another state agency.”

“I am so grateful to the staff of Peak Performers for giving me an opportunity and chance to prove my hard work and dedication. I appreciate the grace that I have been shown. My state agency supervisor was a great supervisor and I learned a lot as a Developer for him. It is great to be recognized when you are truly giving it your all and putting one foot forward. I appreciate the kind words.”

“Today marks my one year anniversary with Peak Performers! Thanks so much for all of your support and assistance. I truly appreciate the opportunity that I was given one year ago today and Peak has been one of the best organizations that I have ever worked for. Thanks again!”

“Thank you for being so helpful and efficient when I needed assistance. I’ve never worked for a temporary service before and you and the staff at Peak Performers have been very patient and understanding.”

“I signed up with Peak Performers when I first came to Austin back in 2008 and have worked for them on various assignments over the years since then when I was between jobs. I had also signed up with about a dozen other temporary employment agencies and Peak was always the first agency to get me an assignment and they paid better as well. I have always referred people that I meet who are looking for work to Peak Performers, because I think that they are one of the best agencies in the area for both the employers as well as the employees.”

“Good Morning, I just wanted to say thanks to You and Mai and the rest of the Staff at Peak. I appreciate all the kindness and support y’all gave me. I hope you all have a wonderful day. I wouldn’t be where I am today without you guys help. Again Thank you all very much.”

“Thank you so much for the kind words!! Your agency really doesn’t just place people into jobs, it changes people’s lives and gives them opportunities they may not have otherwise. I also LOVED the Birdseye view I got while being inside the agencies and departments. It’s so nice to “try out a job” before you actually accept one. And of course you work with managers and get to see if they are a good fit for us. Keep up the great work! Take care!”

“I wanted to let you know that I will start a full time job with the Department of Public Safety on Monday. During my 19 months working with Peak Performers, I had a wonderful and very good time. Thank you so much for the job extensions and the opportunity to be a part of a great company. Thank you one more time to all the Peak Performers staff. Thank you and have a wonderful day.”

“Recently, I have been privileged with the opportunity for permanent hire with the Texas Comptroller’s Office. Much, is due to your strategic placement and perfect match for me here as a temporary. I’d like to thank you and Peak Performers for all you have done for me since day one, I’m humbled. The past 9 months have been pleasurable!”

“I have worked with Peak Performers on multiple assignments with State agencies. The pay was great and the assignments were appropriate for my skills. My experience has always been very positive. I have worked for other agencies since retiring and I can say Peak has been the best.”

“Just wanted to let you know how fabulous Quintin has been this week. He has been busy with ‘record maintenance’ and helping us with anything we ask of him. We have our DPS Facilities doing some shifting of cubicles, so the timing has been perfect. Quintin has put in a lot of hard work moving boxes and sorting through files, things we just never seem to get around to doing. Probably most impressive is his positive and ‘can do’ attitude. Thanks for sending him to us!”

“I would like to notify you that I have accepted a full-time Permanent position with the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC). I also would like to say that this opportunity has given me a wealth of experience and I want to thank you and everybody involved at Peak for helping me out. Should I ever need help with finding a job or if I know someone who’s looking as well, I will certainly refer them you guys/gals.”

“I just wanted to say a big ‘Thank You’ to you guys and Peak Performers for providing me this opportunity here at the Texas Comptroller’s Office. As I have ever since I first worked with you guys back in 2009, I will continue to refer people to Peak Performers because, in my humble opinion, you all provide the best temporary staffing service in Austin both to employees as well as employers. Best wishes for the future.”

“I just wanted to let you know I have accepted a position with TDA. I will be starting as a full-time Administrative Assistant. I have enjoyed being a part of Peak Performers and really, really appreciate all of your help along the way. YOU GUYS TOTALLY ROCK at PEAK !!!”

“Today is my last day at Peak and I just wanted to let you know how awesome it has been to work with you. You are super-duper people and I will always be grateful that I had the opportunity to work with you. Truly you have enriched my life. I have enjoyed my seven years at Peak and everyone in the office has been just fantastic. I will miss you all but make sure I stop in from time to time to say hello.”

“I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for being one of the kindest and most professional recruiters that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I cannot remember anyone in your position ever taking the time to call me with the current status of a position that I had been submitted as a candidate for, like you do. You are always so sweet and upbeat in the messages that you leave for me, and such a pleasure to visit with whenever I’m actually able to take your call, that I just thought you should be commended for taking that extra step to make everyone fortunate enough to work with you feel very lucky. I certainly appreciate you, and I know that everyone you come in contact with during the course of your business day undoubtedly appreciates you as well. Just thanks for being you – you are absolutely a credit to your employer and occupation. The Tarrant County opportunity didn’t work out, but not because you didn’t do an excellent job presenting me. It was great working with you!”

“The people at Peak are very sweet and patient. It’s so obvious that they care about the people that they’re helping find a job and aren’t just filling spots.”

“I’ve always found them to be courteous and would say working with them has been a very pleasant experience. I’d recommend anyone looking for work short term or long term give Peak a call.”

“I have accepted a new full-time position working with the State of Texas that will help to advance my career and my skills as a professional…My time with Peak Performers has been educational and valuable in my professional development. As a recent graduate from Texas A&M University, and having little working experience coming out of college, I had difficulty getting work that I could gain experience from and found meaningful. Working with Peak Performers has allowed me to build professional relationships that I have never been able to make before, and has provided me an opportunity to work a full-time position for the first time in my career. I have recommended Peak Performers to several of my closest friends, as I believe Peak Performers to be a valuable resource for beginning a professional career. I am thankful for the opportunity to learn and experience all that I have with Peak Performers.”

“I just wanted to quickly write and say it was very nice meeting with you and thank you for your time. To be honest it was the first time I worked with a staffing agency who treated me like an actual person and that alone was so very refreshing. :)”
