Where It All Started
Zeta Rennie, one of Founders of Staffing Solutions LLC has recently retired.
In the 1970s Zeta worked for an international staffing firm called Snelling & Snelling. She then went on to open her own company, Firm Solutions, where she provided permanent placement. She was very quickly joined by Carol Martin, to help broaden her sights onto the temp side of the staffing market, as well as Linda Vaga, who started their legal division. Two years later, Nicholas Martin joined, continuing staffing service and expansion in the IT, Clerical and Legal market. Staffing Solutions sits proudly at over thirty years of business- and these three women are where it all started.
