Secrets from the Best Firms
Chris Sund joined Staffing Referrals alongside other top-rated employers to share the culture practices and leadership philosophies behind their recognition.


A company people want to stay in.
Staffing Referrals brought together leaders who had earned recognition as top-rated employers to talk through the culture practices and leadership philosophies behind that result. Uniti Med had been named one of America’s Best Staffing Firms to Work For, and Chris shared the people-first practices that earned the designation.
The conversation covered how they build internal team culture and how they attract and keep strong recruiters in a competitive market. It is a useful hour for any staffing leader trying to build a place people genuinely want to work at and remain at.
One thread that runs through the session is the link between a strong internal culture and a referral engine. People who like where they work tell other good people about it, which turns culture from a soft investment into a measurable sourcing advantage.
