In October 2020, Sparks Group partnered with research satisfaction firm, ClearlyRated, to help us gauge our candidates and employees' overall satisfaction with our services. The results of the survey will be used by ClearlyRated in the selection of its Best of Staffing Talent Awards list in February 2021. Sparks Group has been privileged to receive this award seven times overall (including 2016-2020) and is hopeful to again be named in 2021.
