“Vizi has been very accommodating to our business needs. I have enjoyed the implementation of the systems portion to ensure and increase effectiveness and efficiencies. VIZI helped us let the systems do the work and reduced the manual processes we had previously. Part time jobs are not always as appealing to candidates, but VIZI’s Enhanced Job Descriptions helped us stand out from our competitors and were eye catching to attract interest, and ultimately applications. VIZI does that work for us.”
