SANTA BARBARA, CA – June 27, 2007 – The Select Family of Staffing Companies, a top 10 national staffing industry leader, announced that, effective immediately, more than 90 of the company’s branch offices across the country will conduct business as SelectRemedySM.

With annual sales of nearly $1.5 billion, and a total of 300 offices in 35 states, The Select Family of Staffing Companies has plans underway for continued expansion into new markets across the country.  According to the company’s Chairman and CEO, Steve Sorensen, the name change will help pave the way for this growth.  “When we acquired Remedy Intelligent Staffing in 2006, we chose the SelectRemedy name to help acclimate our customers to our new partnership,” said Sorensen.  “Now that Remedy has been successfully integrated into our Select family, we believe that the SelectRemedySM name will cause less confusion as we expand into new markets and will give us a strong brand foundation for future growth.” 

Select has established its reputation by recruiting and screening thousands of professional job candidates to find the most qualified job seekers for the best jobs.  Their new name, SelectRemedySM, reflects the company’s broader expertise as a strategic staffing partner for its client companies.  “Our range of services is much greater than just supplying outstanding personnel,” said Sorensen.  “We also deliver a full menu of premier workforce management services, including payroll and time attendance management, on-site supervision, and proactive safety programs.  Our experts can also provide on-site training and seminars in legal and safety issues, OSHA regulations, and general management issues to help our customers succeed in today’s business world." 

As part of the SelectRemedySM brand launch, the company also introduced a new website, selectstaffing.com. “Our objective was to make the website as interactive as possible so it would be easier for our customers and job candidates to do business with Select,” said Lori Weathers, Marketing Director for The Select Family of Staffing Companies.  “Rather than burying functionality such as our Quick Job Search for job seekers and our online order form for clients deep inside the site, we moved them to our home page for easy access.” 

The website also introduces Select’s “We Get People” brand proposition which is driven by the company’s ability to consistently identify the needs of its customers and offer highly customized solutions specific to those needs. “ ‘We Get People’ is our commitment to take the time to understand our clients and temporary associates from the inside out so we’re able to offer smarter solutions that help make their lives easier,” said Weathers. 

Founded in Santa Barbara, California in 1985, The Select Family of Staffing Companies is one of the nation’s fastest-growing, full-service staffing companies.  In addition to the SelectRemedySM brand, the company operates under the brand names of Remedy® Intelligent Staffing, RemX® Financial Staffing, RemX® IT Staffing, and RemX® OfficeStaff.
