Pola is one of the most delightful people I had the pleasure of working for in my career. She was not only able to keep our team on target and organized, but her regular communication also helped us remain positive when things were becoming challenging. She could push us to perform to the best of our abilities, and her empathy helped to create a pleasant workplace environment. Pola's guidance has helped me become a lot better employee, and anyone would be fortunate to work with her!

Brandon Davis

It became very apparent when working with Pola that she has a unique understanding of the prehire and onboarding lifecycle. With an undeniable passion for people and almost a sixth sense, Pola really understands rising employee expectations in the modern world. Her laser focused approach and understanding in identifying frustrating and inefficient onboarding processes to help reduce turnover was evident with every interaction. Never single threaded, Pola was instrumental in achieving the necessary interdepartmental cooperation to advance our discussions and the overall onboarding process efficiencies for the business. Few business processes touch as many parts of a company as onboarding of new hires, but Pola always made it look simple and that takes experience, skill and presence. It’s been a pleasure to work with you on this project. Brandon.
