HELPING YOU TRANSFORM FROM GOOD TO GREAT
When our founders, Devon Dickinson and Tommy Cheng, started Verified First in 2012, they found inspiration from legendary business consultant Jim Collins. In his famous book, "From Good to Great," Collins argues that companies make transformations through making human capital their first priority.
Collins compares a business to a bus and the leader as a bus driver. For a company to get to its destination, it’s critical to get the right people on the bus and keep the wrong people off the bus. Starting with “who” instead of “what” helps businesses adapt to a changing world and change direction to be successful.
Even if you have great vision, a lack of great people can still create a mediocre company. Our founders took this advice to heart not only when building the team for Verified First, but also when determining our company’s purpose: To make companies great by helping them make effective hiring decisions.
CULTURE IS KEY
We know that our customer service is only as good as the employees that provide it. In a service-driven industry like ours, it’s critical that we find, train, and nurture the best employees we can. We take extra care in making sure they love where they work. Because of our focus on employee satisfaction and growing a positive culture, we were named one of the Best Places to Work in Idaho for 2016, 2017, and 2018. We won culture awards from Outside magazine in 2016 and Entrepreneur magazine in 2017. Happy employees make happy clients—who better to help you find the best possible employees for your business?
