Dillard & Associates was founded by Mr. Marcus & Mrs. Jessica Dillard, in 1997, as a resume writing service. Then residing in Brea California, Mr. & Mrs. Dillard found themselves constantly approached by friends and family members seeking assistance in their quest to secure gainful employment. Both, having worked in various capacities of management, Mr. & Mrs. Dillard felt they could render their expertise in the hiring process. Having only been married 2yrs and working from a limited amount of resources, Mr. & Mrs. Dillard found they lacked 1 essential element in getting this service up and operative, a computer. Refusing to allow the lack of owning a computer impede their progress, they spent countless hours interviewing applicants, providing interviewing coaching techniques, handwriting resumes and then transferring the handwritten draft onto computer software at the local library or at an acquaintance home of whom they were visiting.
In the span of 3yrs Dillard & Associates worked to establish, legalize and affiliate themselves respectfully throughout its community. In 1999, Dillard & Associates became licensed with the city of Corona as a resume writing service. Eager to learn its new community, became members of the Riverside Chamber of Commerce (Riverside, CA) and the Orange County Black Chamber of Commerce (Santa Ana, CA). In 2000, Dillard & Associates was invited as a prime vendor of choice to participate in the annual “Black History Parade” held in Santa Ana, CA. Their staff members had the opportunity to speak with individuals across all age groups on the importance of education and prepping for the career of choice.
After working with several hundred individuals, Marcus & Jessica became inspired once again to offer their community more. In 2000 Dillard & Associates registered as a staffing service with the city of Corona. Over the course of the next 5yrs. Dillard & Associates would find itself expanding into new areas of the employment market and being presented with new challenges and more rewarding experiences. As an infant in the market, Dillard & Associates found itself staffing for some very prominent businesses in the industries of telecommunications, banking, mortgage firms, textile, alarm companies, and more. With its comparable rates and excellent referrals, it has established some long term relationships with its clients.
In 2002, Dillard & Associates received its public notary certification through the National Notary Association, offering yet another service to its community and in 2005 became members of the California Staffing Professionals (CSP) .
As a thriving company, Dillard & Associates is making its mark in the community as being a company whose establishment is founded on “Excellence”.
