AP Golf Tournament, UTV Rental & Dinner at Mastro’s City Hall all make for a memorable 2023 Kick-Off weekend!

Each year our President, Jerry Tenenbaum, hosts a kick-off weekend in our homebase city of Scottsdale, Arizona. To show appreciation for the team’s hard work throughout the year, this weekend event is thrown. This also provides a chance for the team to reset for the upcoming year! Our entire internal AP team is invited to join with a guest. This year we flew in team members from Portland, Seattle, Virginia, Vegas, Buffalo and Maryland. It’s not often that the entire team gets to interact in-person, so these events are extra special!  

January 13th, 2023

The weekend started out with an AP Golf Tournament for those who wanted to participate in hitting the green. This Tournament took place at a Scottsdale course where breakfast was held before hand. After a beautiful day on the course, it was time for Happy Hour! Open to all who wanted to join on the patio of the club.

January 14th, 2023

Saturday started off bright and early up in Cave Creek, AZ for the adventure junkies of the group! The team spent a whole half a day driving UTVs through the mountains, canyons & along the Rio Verde River. After getting a bit muddy & grabbing some lunch it was time to head back to Scottsdale. The group got ready for a team dinner at Mastro’s City Hall in Old Town Scottsdale.

Everyone was able to come together for the team dinner that night, which is always the highlight of the weekend. During the 2022 year, we added three new team members to the company. This was a great opportunity for them to meet many of the out-of-town members in person! Due to covid-19 restrictions, a couple members who came on board 2 years ago still hadn’t met everyone face to face!

Overall, kick-off weekend was a huge success. The team was able to bond & share some great laughs! These weekends help us all close the year behind us and look forward to the upcoming year with a refreshed attitude.

A 2022 Recap

Breaking records & setting new goals. As we say goodbye to 2022, we are ready to take on 2023.

As we set our sights on goals for 2023, we take a moment to look back on all that we accomplished in 2022. This year brought us new records, new clients, and new expansion opportunities. We are proud to have kept our teams fully intact throughout the year. Not losing a single team member (yet again) while also gaining three new ones! Our recruiters have an average of 12 years of experience in the staffing industry.

At AP Professionals, we held our title as one of the top five Best Places to Work in Phoenix (awarded by the Phoenix Business Journal) this year. We also were able to bring back our Phoenix & Pacific Northwest consultant/client parties which we hope many of you got to enjoy!

In 2022 we are proud to have made over 400 total placements in the IT & Healthcare industries within our team of 12 recruiters. More than half of these positions were remote while a quarter were hybrid and the final quarter onsite. While continuing to work with top Fortune 500 companies, we accepted awards such as The Most Valuable Partner for one of the world’s largest apparel and footwear companies headquartered in Oregon. Though our clients’ needs change each year, 2022 marked a high demand in the areas of Cyber Security, Scrum Masters, Senior Business Analysts, Speech Language Pathologists/Therapists and Program/Project/Product Managers.

With 2023 just beginning we already have so much in our pipeline! We plan to bring you new job opportunities in new locations. While continuing to create personalized relationships with each of our consultants. This year we will work to refine some of our internal processes while also expanding the ones that have been working well for us. As we keep giving our best each day, we look forward to growing with you in the new year!

Happy New Year!

Check out what our consultants are saying about us!

Whether this is your first time working with a recruiting agency or your 100th, every agency handles their consultants differently. And believe us when we say, we’ve heard some unfortunate horror stories. At AP Professionals, we pride ourselves on providing reliable, top-notch, personalized services from the moment you connect with one of our recruiters to the moment you offboard with us. Through the processes of recruiting, interviewing, onboarding, offboarding and everything in between, we ensure all of our consultants (current & future) are taken care of at every turn. You can count on being paid on time & being signed up for benefits efficiently & quickly. As well as having hands on/one-on-one help & communication from our recruiters. And finally, connecting with real people on the other side of your phone calls!

You don’t have to take our word for it, below are just a few of our consultant’s reviews!

“I would like to express my appreciation for all the help that I have received from my recruiter. As well as the rest of the team at AP Professionals. It was your recruitment efforts that brought me to this rewarding experience. I now get to continue with this healthcare provider client as their full time employee. The employee benefits you offer have been outstanding – I really love how AP Professionals supports their employees.” – Brian C.

“I have had the privilege of two separate assignments from AP Professionals. Each contract was with well-established companies that allowed me to grow within my role during my time at each organization. Many years elapsed between the assignments, but Neil and the entire AP staff remembered me right away and are always so cordial and friendly. Everything from the recruitment process, pay-scale, benefits etc. is top notch! I highly recommend any IT professional seeking advancement of their career to connect with AP Professionals!” – Sean P.

“I would recommend AP Professionals to other people in my network because you guys were fast at landing me a position, were on top of things when I had questions, and are the only contracting company I have worked with thus far that provides any vacation, holiday, and sick pay to its contractors at all.” – Shelly E.

“Working with AP and a Fortune 500 global fashion & apparel company was one of, if not the best, engagement I have had in my 14+ years of consulting. Leslie is a great recruiter, and the HR Team has been great support.” – Nathan H.

“I would highly recommend people to work with AP. Whenever an issue was found, I was informed immediately. Communication with agents was very succinct and transparent, which allowed me to always be aware of my working situation.” – Cyrus R.
