I just wanted to throw it out there how much I LOVE working with Alyx Griffith. She’s been handling our education verifications, and she is just so awesome to work with. She’s punctual, responsive, and continues to follow up. Not to mention you can tell she’s a ray of sunshine through emails.

Just wanted to pass this along 😊

The customer service at RSI is top notch! Someone (yes, a real person) always answers the phone, and we never get a recording or put on long holds. If they cannot answer our question, they get us to someone who can and without delay. They are consistently kind, knowledgeable and reliable. We will never use another reference service provider for our staffing agency, and we have recommended them to many of our clients. Thank you, RSI, for being there for us! You are a crucial part of the success of our company running smoothly!
