I would like to extend thanks to CPRS Calgary for posting our company’s application request on the website. The position has been vacant for an extended period with no response from the advertisements we placed for the position in local newspapers. After placing the posting on the CPRS job board we received resumes from numerous valuable candidates and are very pleased with the individual hired. Thanks once again.”
