This was one of the best hiring processes I have ever been a part of! The work HR Nola completed for our organization was expansive but also extremely efficient for the time period it was completed. Within 8 months Amy and HR Nola managed to conduct an audit, implement an annual training program and provide focus to our organization, and helped us retain two key employees on our Sr. Management Team, including our Human Resources Director. The work that HR NOLA conducted for us was invaluable.
