EmployBridge (formerly known as The Select Family of Staffing Companies) is an American company that provides temporary and permanent staff.
A member of the American Staffing Association, EmployBridge is ranked as the 10th-largest employment agency in the United States (3rd-largest for industrial staffing, 10th-largest for office/clerical, and 12th-largest for finance/accounting) and the 14th largest in the world. The company primarily offers services in human resources, and has approximately 400 offices in 46 states.
On January 5, 2015, Select announced its plans to merge with Atlanta-based EmployBridge to form the largest industrial staffing organization in the United States. The merger was completed on February 9, 2015.
The company's major divisions include ResourceMFG, ProLogistix, ProDrivers, Select Staffing, Remedy Intelligent Staffing, Westaff, RemX, Personnel One, Resource Accounting, MedicalSolutions, and StaffingSolutions.
Known originally as Select Temporaries, the company opened its first office in Santa Barbara, California in 1985. In the 1990s, the company began an acquisitive growth strategy, purchasing an average of two competitors a year. Since 2000, It has bought or merged with over 80 top staffing firms nationwide, including Checkmate Staffing, First Site Staffing, Staffing Services and Progressive Personnel Services, National Careers Corporation, PDQCareers.com and CT Engineering, Ablest Inc., Tandem Staffing Solutions, and Westaff, among others.
The company's largest acquisition to date was of RemedyTemp, Inc. in 2006. From this purchase, it received multiple new divisions and entered into new niche markets, including Remedy Intelligent Staffing (franchise) and RemX Specialty Staffing (finance and accounting, IT, high-end clerical, scientific, fashion/design, and engineering). As a result, The Select Family of Staffing Companies was chosen as the umbrella name for all divisions. As the same time, Select was briefly renamed SelectRemedy (it retains the SelectRemedy name in certain markets), before changing its name to Select Staffing in 2007.
