The 3 C’s: Clients, Colleagues & Community

Here at SDHRC, we spend a lot of time talking about the three C’s: clients, colleagues, and community. With every decision we make, we first ask ourselves, does it benefit all three C’s? We feel it helps make us one of the best HR companies and helped us be awarded San Diego’s Best Places to Work 2022 and 2018.

Doing excellent business with our clients is at the foundation of our company, and by doing good, we mean doing the right thing. We believe in honesty, integrity, and the power of business karma.
We have a supportive environment in which all of our employees work as a team to support one another in their work and personal lives. We celebrate one another, participate in fun in-person team building events, distribute exciting SDHRC "swag", offer generous benefits, and much more!
In the spirit of doing good, part of our culture is to hire individuals who share our vision. We enthusiastically encourage community involvement among our team and are proud to support many local charities. In 2024, our team volunteered over 159 hours to nonprofits in their communities.

We’re not like most consulting firms... here’s why.

After years of witnessing unsavory practices among recruitment agencies, CEO, Julie Hunt, had the vision to turn the recruitment and HR world on its head. As a result, she built an HR company founded on the values of doing “good” business with everyone it touches – including clients, colleagues, and the community. In 2023, we had the opportunity to volunteer at Brother Benno’s as we supported their thrift shop and helped prepare for a holiday event for children in need.

Learn how our unique values and culture drive all our business decisions.

In the land of SDHRC, a culture of positivity and support drives our business model. We treat our people with dignity and respect. We make sure our clients get exceptional services tailored to their individual needs. Of course, we are for finding top, “right-fit” talent and keeping them happy at all levels of the organization. This is what we’re against: price-gouging, “phoning it in,” and relying on one-size-fits-all services. With SDHRC, we promise you’ll get a fully committed team who are on a mission to delight.

Pioneering a work/life balance model for the 21st century.

In building our team of top-tier recruiters and HR specialists, we realized there was a wealth of untapped talent who were eager to share their skills and knowledge, but who needed the flexibility to make it work with their family obligations. Thus, the SDHRC “mom bench” was born and quickly grew to include dads, grandparents, dog moms, and anyone looking for a flexible work environment. We believe family should always come first and are proving every day that work/life balance is not only possible but a key ingredient to making a business thrive. I guess you could say we made remote work “cool” before the pandemic made it a thing!

What do we love about our company culture?

“It’s simple. Our leadership cares about the human being. SDHRC has built an innovative culture of satisfied employees and engagement opportunities by focusing on what our employees already know they want and need to be successful. We are a team of human professionals who learn from one another, support out of the box ideas and bring new concepts to the table. And are met with acceptance and interest! I did not realize what I was getting myself into when I started with SDHRC. And it has completely changed the way I think about culture!”

“What do I love about SDHRC’s company culture? Company culture is created by a shared pattern of basic assumptions made by the people who comprise the organization. I believe we share the following assumptions: 1) The SDHRC brand has attracted the most interesting array of clients an HR consultant could hope for. 2) We want our clients to succeed, we want to succeed individually, we want our teammates to succeed, and we want our leader to succeed. 3) We are given the tools to facilitate success – templates, processes, information, and person to person support.”
