Every placement agency in the known world utilizes the same systemic approach - are you ready to experience the difference?
Have you had numerous staff over several years and they never last for five, ten or 20 years?
Are you tired of the high, "fees," and the promises that are broken from other agencies?

We are the only agency and school that is operating in a "real" service environment daily.
We don't just, "open our mansion up for the next class," next quarter...
Laurel Placement is housed in the historic Hambright Mansion Inn - an American legacy and treasure.
All team members serve daily, are chefs, are certified in sanitation, cleaning, security and are housekeepers. 
No one is "unfamiliar" with the "real" demands of the job - from cleaning, to maintenance, to security and cooking.
 We hold our own staff to a higher level than any other agency in the world - most of whom only sit behind desks all day long.

"Placement agencies putting candidates into estates, resorts and homes should be Certified Human Resource Professionals.
Simply having a degree or placing candidates for, "numerous years now," does not qualify them to maintain proficiency
with ever changing laws.  They should belong to a Certified Body of Professionals whom governs their actions."
