This week, we’re so excited to introduce you to Donna Blodgett, an Operations Administrator in JSG’s Jacksonville office! She joined our company almost three years ago and has been making an impact on our Operations and staff ever since. Keep reading to learn more about Donna and her role here at Johnson Service Group!
You have been with JSG for two and a half years, tell us a little bit more about your career.
I started my career in the social work industry and have always had a passion for helping people. My last position in social work was a manager of a 31 bed Alzheimer’s Unit. In 2010, I transitioned into the IT industry and did recruiting and business development. In 2012, I had a great opportunity to be part of a startup IT company, working directly with the CEO, helping to grow the company. Almost three years ago, I joined JSG, and it has been a great learning and growth experience ever since!
You have a background in Business Development and Recruiting. What do you like most about the Operations side of staffing?
Having experience working in staffing, I was definitely interested in staying in the industry. The operations side of staffing allows me to still help people, which is what I love most! I like working with the consultants, either doing onboarding or helping to resolve issues.
Why do you enjoy working for JSG?
I love that I work for an international company, and at the same time, the company has a family feel to it. No matter which office, all of the employees, co-workers, managers, and our Senior VP Mike Measures are great and supportive. I had the opportunity to visit the San Jose office last year while visiting family and all the staff treated me like they had always known me. I really feel like management cares about us as employees, as well as people too.
How has your division grown since you’ve been with the company?
The biggest thing is that we’ve gone paperless! Going digital has made the onboarding process and doing audits easier to streamline. I do all the audits for our clients, and the process goes a lot faster and smoother.
What do you like to do outside of work?
I love baking and cooking. And giving back to my church. I am on the hospitality team, and I bake for the church monthly. I learned ballroom dancing about 15 years ago and would love to spend more time doing this.
