ATLANTA, GA (April 2026) — SKL’D, a staffing and workforce partner serving skilled trades, manufacturing and supply chain, announced today that it has won the Best of Staffing Client, Employee, and Talent Award for providing an exceptional experience for clients, candidates and employees. ClearlyRated’s Best of Staffing® Award winners have proven to be industry leaders in service quality based entirely on ratings provided by their clients, candidates and employees.
Clients of award-winning agencies are over 50% more likely to be fully satisfied, and candidates placed by these firms are 60% more likely to feel the same. Employees at these agencies are also much happier, with dissatisfaction rates less than half of those at other firms.
SKL’D received a Net Promoter® Score of 86.7 from its candidates, an NPS score of 100 from employees and an NPS score of 93.8 from their clients.
“We believe Net Promoter Score is the gold standard,” Jon Neff, CEO and Co-Founder of SKL’D, said. “It’s not about what you say. It’s about whether people would recommend you. That’s earned. To be recognized by ClearlyRated, one of the most credible organizations in our space, reinforces what we’re building at SKL’D—a better experience for everyone connected to the work.”
