Nicole Williams
Talent Sourcing Manager
As the Talent Sourcing Manager, my day typically involves launching and monitoring campaigns while collaborating closely with our branches to ensure our sourcing efforts are effective.
By working hand in hand with our branches, I’m able to gain better insights into their hiring needs to provide tailored recommendations and adjustments to help them achieve their hiring goals. I also have the opportunity to work with the marketing team on social, which allows me to tap into my creativity and contribute to the company in another impactful way.

Personal Journey
Q: Before working at Integrity Staffing, what was the most unusual or interesting job you’ve ever had?
A: Before working at Integrity, I worked in the restaurant industry for a little over 4 years. Out of high school I got my first job in a restaurant as a host and worked my way up to server, then bartender, and eventually Social Media Manager for my local college bar.
Q: How did you first learn about Integrity Staffing?
A: I first learned about Integrity Staffing through my own job search journey. After searching for about a year during the pandemic, I came across Integrity’s post for a Social Media Coordinator, and it was exactly what I was looking for!
Q: How do you balance your career at Integrity Staffing and your family?
A: Having the opportunity to work remotely is incredibly helpful in managing work/life balance. Being able to eliminate commuting gives me back time to get things done during the week and be with my fiancé and family on the weekends rather than filling my weekends with to-do lists. And I get to spend all day with my fur babies!
Q: How has Integrity helped you in your career development and how have you grown professionally while on our team?
A: I mentioned earlier how I’ve had the privilege of accepting two promotions within my team. These growth opportunities have not only allowed me to expand my skill set but also helped boost my confidence in the work that I do.
Q: What advice do you have for prospective Integrity candidates?
A: My advice would be never hesitate to ask questions or seek help. Everyone here is extremely supportive and always willing to assist, whether you’re new or have been with the company for a while. And if they can’t directly assist you, they’ll help you find someone who can!
What do you like most about Integrity?
What I like most about Integrity is the opportunities it provides for personal and professional growth. The company creates an environment where I can develop my skills and take on new challenges, helping me progress in my career while feeling supported.
