Riverside Personnel Services

Our history
Since 1978, Riverside Personnel Services, founded by Sue Mitchell and Zelma “Zee” Beard, has assisted Inland Empire businesses by providing quality staffing. RPS specializes in the placement of skilled office and accounting professionals from clerical support to high-level accounting. We provide both Direct-Hire placements and Temporary assignments. The principals feel the major reason their business has grown in size and reputation has been because of their commitment to the development of a service-oriented rather than a sales-oriented staff. That assertion was confirmed by Kathy Hartman, Chief Operating Officer with a 25 year tenure, who said, “I know that if I make a customer service decision that doesn’t bring immediate income to the company, I will still have the support of Sue and Zee.” Clients of Riverside Personnel Services have discovered that their professional staff is well trained and a pleasure to work with. Another equally obvious commitment is the one the partners have to the Riverside community. Their support of over a dozen non-profit organizations through financial contribution and/or Board leadership is extraordinary for a small business. “We both feel fortunate that our association with the Air Force (we met at an officers’ wives luncheon over 30 years ago) directed us to Riverside. To live in a growing city with a small town warmth meets our personal and professional needs. We are committed through our community involvement to help preserve Riverside’s uniqueness.” As they celebrate the company’s 30th year in business, Sue and Zee agree that one of their greatest rewards comes from realizing that people truly do recognize and appreciate good services.
