Sundays mattered to Geisha Loreto — going to church with her son was something she cherished. But her bakery job, where she’d been working for nearly a year, scheduled her every weekend. And with her hours not always reaching 40 each week, she felt it was time for something different — something more stable, and something that allowed her to be with her son on Sundays.
A friend told her about Verstela, so she stopped by the Kirkland, WA office in person. “I liked Verstela right away,” Geisha said. “Everyone was respectful and kind. The process was easy, and they helped me a lot.”
The timing couldn’t have been better. Recruiting Specialist Caleb Park had just started working with a new client who needed an entry-level warehouse associate — and the hours were Monday–Friday, 8am–5:30pm, exactly what she was hoping for.
“She was looking for more stable hours, and we were looking for someone motivated and ready to learn,” Caleb shared.
Even without previous warehouse experience, Geisha was excited for the chance to learn something new. And from the beginning, the team could tell she’d be a great match.
Once she started, she quickly became known for being reliable, positive, and hardworking. “They liked her a lot!” Caleb added. As she built relationships with her coworkers and her manager, her strong reputation followed her. When she later had to leave the country for over a month to support her family, the company welcomed her back without hesitation — a clear sign of how much they valued her.
At work, she feels part of a team that appreciates her. “I like the people,” she said. “My coworkers are very nice, and my manager is very nice with me. They are all so respectful.”
And outside of work, life feels better too. With her new Monday–Friday schedule, she finally gets her Sundays back.
“I go to church every Sunday with my son,” she shared. “It’s very important to me.”
Her advice to someone looking for a job? “Be responsible. Do the work. I recommend Verstela.”
