Built here. For here.

Driftless Workforce Group started with a simple observation: the recruiters serving our region mostly aren't from it. They work off databases and job boards, matching keywords from an office three states away. We do it differently.

We come to recruiting from the other side of the desk.

Before this was a business, it was years spent in the kind of work we now recruit for — on the floor, on the line, in the back of the house. We understand these jobs because we've held them. That means when we put a candidate in front of you, we're not guessing whether they'll fit. We have a pretty good idea whether they'll show up, work hard, and stick around.

This region isn't a market to us — it's home.

The La Crosse area and the broader Driftless region aren't a market to us. We know the employers, we know the talent pool, and we understand what it takes to build a career and a life here. That local knowledge is the whole point. National agencies place names off a screen. We place people we'd vouch for in our own community.

Built for the long haul.

We're an employer-paid agency, which means job seekers never pay us a cent. Our clients only pay when we successfully place someone, and every placement is backed by a guarantee. We're not built to fill a seat and move on — we're built to earn long-term relationships with the businesses and workers who keep this region running.

If you're hiring, or looking to be hired, we'd like to help. We're right down the road.
