What Our Clients Say

I would like to thank the Drake International team once again for helping us find a Millwright replacement back in February 2024. The new hire has become a huge asset to our team. His skill set and positive friendly attitude makes him a great teammate for all his coworkers! We will definitely reach out to Drake International in the future when we are in need of more skilled tradespeople.

Skilled Trades and Technical

I wanted you to know that we’ve just hired a salesperson through your Mississauga branch. The service was excellent, and all the candidates met our expectations. However, two stood head and shoulders above the rest and we were able to hire the candidate of choice. We expect this new person to take us to new heights in sales and profitability by securing business in areas we haven’t tapped into. It was good to use the services of a company that purchases from us.

Sales and Marketing

My experiences with the staff at my local Drake office have always been professional, and pleasurable. They go above and beyond in helping solve my temporary labour needs. I even had one position that required Drake to meet several needs and concerns, and they took the time to research and develop a plan so I could fill that position. I most definitely would recommend my local Drake office to fill any labour needs.
