The Dawson Bus – Our Mobile Recruitment Center

When we had to build a team from the ground up for our Swedish company’s North American headquarters, we knew we needed a strong employment partner. Having worked with Dawson and their associates at another high-caliber customer care center, I knew they would work to understand our unique culture and needs.

They’ve been our staffing vendor since day one.

Candidate Acquisition We build strong relationships with trusted agencies to ensure top talent for your requisitions.

We are Community Champions who are proud to give back to Columbus.

Dawson employees are rewarded with “Volunteer Time Off” for donating their time to local charities, and the Dawson Community Champions Foundation supports educational and philanthropic causes benefiting underserved youth and families in Central Ohio.

Volunteer Time Off encourages Dawson’s employees to get involved with charities they’re passionate about. Dawson Colleagues have fed the homeless, ridden in Pelotonia, and made blankets for kids at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, just to name a few.

The Dawson Community Champions made a $25,000 gift to the Nationwide Children’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Riverside Methodist Hospital, creating a comfortable patient setting for Central Ohio families in their time of need.

My favorite part of working at Dawson was the community and the work environment, because everyone was so friendly and it really made me feel like I could belong there.

- Carlos Patterson Since 2013, Dawson has been a founding partner of Cristo Rey Columbus High School, offering real-life work experience to underserved youth and paying a portion of those students’ tuition.

Of all the work Dawson does to give back, we are most proud of the Community Workforce Programs we’ve designed in conjunction with Central Ohio schools and youth serving organizations to reach high school and college students, their parents, and community job seekers.

Faculty Education helps teachers and counselors provide the best guidance for students as they prepare for their post-secondary lives.

Mock Interviews give students the opportunity to practice their interview skills without the pressure of an actual interview setting.

Internships and Mentorships give students the opportunity to define their interests and skills in real-world job settings.

Student Presentations educate high school students on their options and teach them the basics of their first job search.

Shadow Days introduce students to a variety of vocations so they can better determine their work interests.

Senior Socials deliver job seeking and other preparatory information to graduates along with treats from the Dawson Bus.

Job Placements We connect college students with jobs at the Columbus Region’s top employers, so they can earn a paycheck while completing their education.

Career Kickstart Tuition Reimbursement Program Thanks to Dawson’s Career Kickstart, those students can also earn an extra paycheck at the end of each semester with $500 in tuition reimbursement.

Community Career Nights We create events that provide career guidance to parents, community members, and passive job seekers in an environment more casual than the traditional application or interview process.

Career Development Education Dawson works with companies and community organizations to develop training and educational webinars or classes for their employees or members.
