Finding the Perfect Fit: CyLife Church's Journey with Chemistry Staffing

Discover how Chemistry Staffing helped CyLife Church find its ideal candidate. Learn from Lead Pastor Bob Reed's experience and insights on church staffing.

Perfect Fit, CyLife Church, Pastor Journey

When it comes to building a strong church team, finding the right candidate can be a daunting task. CyLife Church in Cypress, Texas, recently faced this challenge and turned to Chemistry Staffing for help.

The result? A home run hire that has Lead Pastor Bob Reed excited about the future.

"We are SUPER excited to have Hugh joining our team," Bob enthuses. He goes on to explain why Hugh is such a great fit: "He brings the experience that we desperately need as a growing church. He has a passion for our main priority of discipleship. And I personally really enjoy him which will be critical to the years ahead of us."

But it wasn't just the end result that impressed Bob. The process itself, led by Chemistry Staffing, exceeded expectations. "Chemistry was able to deliver a couple great candidates in a very short amount of time, and then on top of that during the summer. They under-promised and over-delivered!" Bob shares.

What set Chemistry Staffing apart? According to Bob, it was their communication and thoroughness. "I really appreciated your communication with us through the process, so I wasn't left wondering what's going on. I also really appreciated your thorough front-end process with the candidates to set us up for great conversations."

For churches considering a similar search, Bob offers this advice based on his experience: "We have hired a lot of staff from within, however with this hire we did not have a candidate that was qualified for this position, so it was a risk for me to use Chemistry. I did not have a great experience with another staffing firm a number of years ago, so I was a little leery. But because of some personal friendships and recommendations, we chose to use Chemistry Staffing, and they hit it out of the park. I will not hesitate to use Chemistry again!"

CyLife Church's success story with Chemistry Staffing demonstrates that with the right partner, finding the perfect addition to your church team doesn't have to be a stressful process. It can be an exciting journey that leads to transformative growth for your church community.
