Reliance One has become a staple in the staffing business in Michigan over its 16 years.
The Auburn Hills-based company is now working toward expanding that reputation, opening a new office in Chicago this winter.
"We have clients in that market and clients we currently have locally have offices in Chicago," says Jim Beath, co-founder & chairman of
Reliance One. "We need to continue that relationship with our clients."
The company has grown significantly over the last few years, notching a double-digit revenue gain in 2014. It’s on pace to do it again this year. That growth has allowed the company to hire 15 people over the last year, including recruiters, administrative, and back office support staff. It now has a staff of 65 employees and an intern. It is also looking to hire four more recruiters and promote more people internally.
"We added a lot of great people that have learned a lot about our company and our industry," Beath says.
