Two seasoned recruiters from The Job Exchange, Renee Stipa and Jami Rossman, are set to become valuable additions to the Emerson Group team. With demonstrated excellence in recruiting and customer service, they have built enduring relationships with clients and top talent alike. After 26 years in the staffing industry, Lori Colasanti, the Founder and President of The Job Exchange, will also remain on as an integral part of sales, operations, and business development.

Bill Emerson, President of Emerson Group, expressed enthusiasm, stating, "We are thrilled about the integration of The Job Exchange Associates, Inc. into Emerson Group. This move aligns with our dual commitment to providing unparalleled service and innovative solutions within the employment sector.
