Opinion Columnist

Paige Technologies

I have partnered with Paige technologies because of this paragraph on their corporate page: 
"We, at Paige, grew restless with a one-dimensional 'commodity' staffing approach - where success was defined by a number of skill matches. We knew there had to be a better way. We knew success was more than the match of a job to a skill - people have a lot more to give and companies deserve the whole person. We wanted to go beyond the match. We wanted to pair a person with an organization based on 'dimensional compatibility' - the skill, the values, the work habits, and the personality."

Many people have found themselves in the position of needing work. Paige focuses on the relationship side of the business and together, it will be our mission to fill every position in Kansas City, while providing value to every candidate we have the opportunity to meet. 

If you are looking for a job in the technology industry or maybe looking at some point connect with one of our industry experts today!
