Our Approach

Hiring the Best is Our Quest.

When staff augmentation is needed for your jurisdiction, VCA is organized to serve your hiring needs quickly and cost-effectively. At VCA we are continuously working to fill our pipeline of experienced and highly qualified candidates. We present the best personnel to ensure your Scope of Work, for any type of position, is completed based on your city’s goals and objectives.

Having the best people in the right position makes all the difference in the world. VCA brings dedicated recruiting services to provide the support and resources needed to help you complete your projects on time and within budget.

• Title alone is not enough. It takes hands on experience coupled with a strong knowledge base and ability to connect with stakeholders.
• The proper “fit” must also be assessed for ultimate success on the job. We can assist by matching the right people based on your unique culture, values, organization, and community needs.
• The right credentials are also critical, and we encourage and support our employees to “be all they can be” through education and training.
• Stability and continuity matter when it comes meeting deadlines and promoting integrity for the city. Turn-over is expensive and disruptive, and VCA can help your jurisdiction with a stable group of candidates.
