  • “I put an application in through PorchLight. PorchLight reached out and set up an interview, and it was very simple and straightforward. Porchlight gave me background on the employer, where she then set up an interview with me to meet the employer. After meeting the employer, I was just blown away.

    There’s an open-door policy and you are not micro-managed. My co-workers, I consider family at the end of the day because that’s how close they make you feel. They make you feel welcomed, there’s no wrong questions. It’s so welcoming and inviting. The hard work pays off and you can see it. Darcy, from PorchLight, reaches out to check in to see if I need anything and or how things are going. I would recommend PorchLight to anyone.”
