What Do Candidates Say About Cal/West?

"Cal/West is both highly professional and highly personal in terms of its approach to matching candidates with schools. I've felt wonderfully "seen and heard" by their highly qualified staff and have always been able to get in touch with a staff member, both in times of frustration and elation during my job searches. Cal/West has now helped me to find my THIRD incredible job in the L.A. area and I can't thank them enough for their support and guidance."
-- Catherine, High School English, Southern California

"When I arrived at the Cal/West offices I was immediately struck by the warmth and professionalism of each staff member. I was treated like a VIP by everyone with whom I came into contact and my interviewer, Lee Miller, spent a significant amount of time with me, making sure I understood everything, and guiding me through the process with tips about interviewing, researching my prospective schools, and so on. The follow-up was equally top-notch as I was able to communicate with representatives at Cal West at all times, day or night. All in all I had a terrific experience with Cal West and have already recommended their services to other high-quality educators."
-- Brianna, School Counselor, Southern California

"10 days was all it took. A phone call from Lee on Friday, a job fair on Saturday, 5 interviews in five days. Two job offers by the end of the week. Fantastic!"
-- Jason, Elementary English Teacher, Los Angeles

"Cal/West's contacts throughout the West Coast set the right school searching after me. I'm really pleased with my new position and I am very grateful for the hard work put in by the whole Cal/West team."
-- Kenny, Math Teacher, Northern California

"Cal/West's solid relationships with schools in my area allowed them to serve as my advocate and ultimately provided me with excellent opportunities and choices...opportunities I couldn't have discovered on my own!"
-- Barbara, Director of Admissions, Southern California

"Just today, I accepted a fourth grade position at a school that would not have been on my radar if I had not attended the Diversity Symposium. I cannot thank you enough for all your hard work. Cal/West has helped me meet so many administrators and made my long distance job search much more efficient and less stressful. "
-- Jo, Elementary Teacher, Southern California

"I received calls from both Lee and Fleisch to follow up on my interviews. Fleisch made his mobile number available so I could contact him before I made my final decision. That was very convenient, helpful and a step beyond what I expected. I would work with Cal/West again without hesitation. And I will definitely pass on the word of Cal/West to anyone I know who is applying."
-- Jessica, Science Teacher, Los Angeles

"Cal/West was a great partner in helping me find my 'perfect match.' They were friendly, helpful, and most of all on my side. In fact, I never had as much fun finding a new position!"
-- Jared, Primary Teacher, Northern California

"My experience with Cal/West was exceptional. I signed up in June, which is the slowest time of the year in schools and was initially disappointed that seemingly nothing was happening – no interviews or calls. I relied on my faith that Lee Miller has a great reputation with the local schools and was plugged in so that when the right position opened up, she would submit my file. In November, I received 3 interview requests in one week and was hired immediately. I’m thankful for Lee’s guidance and professionalism and recommend her highly."
-- Lili, Director of Development, Southern California

"2 for 2! Cal West worked diligently to help me find my dream job in Los Angeles four years ago. When I learned that a family matter would require me to move to San Diego, I did not hesitate to call upon Cal/West. I knew I could completely trust the professional staff to help me secure a great opportunity!"
-- Jennifer, Elementary Teacher, San Diego

"No other company can match the thoughtful attention that Cal/West devotes to each of their candidates…I felt that my satisfaction was of the utmost importance throughout the search process. The Cal/West staff takes as much pride in what they do as I do in my teaching, and the end result is that I couldn’t have been happier with what they’ve done for me. "
-- Nick, Math Teacher, Oakland/East Bay

"I wanted to thank you for all of your help this year and last. Working with Cal/West has been absolutely wonderful. I have always been impressed by your friendliness, attention to detail, and your ability to remember seemingly everything about my file! Without any doubt, I owe my current employment to you."
-- Melati, History Teacher, San Francisco
