Music to the Rescue: What’s the Message?

Written by Carlos Jones, Music to the Rescue is all about the healing powers of music. Like Bob Marley said, “when the music hits, you feel no pain.”

No matter what emotion you’re feeling, when you are listening to music that understands you, you are healed. Whatever you are feeling at the time: pain, depression, sadness, music can make that go away. Even if you’re scared, especially during a time like we are experiencing now with COVID-19, music helps.

How Do You Want People to Feel When They Listen to Your Music?

“I would like people to feel how I feel, that joy, that harmony, that euphoria, you know, that I feel when I'm making music with my brothers up on stage. You know, I want to share that and I want them to take that with them and spread that feeling.”

-Carlos Jones

A Better Job, A Better Life: Turn a Temporary Assignment into a Career

Posted By Champion
December 18, 2025 Category: General

Any job can become a career when you decide it will be. We see it every day with people who choose to own their shift, ask for more, and grow where they are planted. The Real Problem Most Workers Face Too many people treat a new job as a stopgap, then let external noise define their path. Negative chatter on the shop floor, a tough day at home, or frustration with quality issues can derail even the strongest start. The truth is, the power to build a meaningful career sits in your hands. At Champion Personnel, we help you match with the right employer, then coach you on how to turn that assignment into real advancement. Start With the Right Fit Choosing the right employer is the first career decision that matters. We match your skills and goals to a company where you can thrive. We paint a clear picture of the culture and work environment, so you know what to expect before day one. We guide you toward employers that value initiative, reliability, and growth. When you have clarity and fit, you walk in confident and ready to deliver value. Day-One Habits That Build Career Momentum Success is a series of small, repeatable behaviors. Here is what separates career builders from job hoppers: Show up and give 110% every day. Especially on the hard days. Material shortages, a line backing up, or departmental tension can happen. Be the steady one who stays focused on solutions and results. Ask questions early and often. Most people avoid questions because answers can mean

What Employers Are Really Looking For in Northeast Ohio: 60 Years of Hiring Insight From Champion Personnel

Three candidates. One promotion. The deciding factor was not the resume. It was the person who showed up every day, asked the right questions, fixed small problems before they became big ones, and kept a positive attitude when the shift got tough. That is the reality of a competitive employment market in Northeast Ohio. You may be competing with two or three people for the same permanent position, pay increase, or promotion. Many candidates think the differentiator is a special skill. In our experience, the small daily behaviors decide who wins opportunities. At Champion Personnel, we have worked with hundreds of direct employers, many for more than a decade. Our founder, Randy Champion, started this work in Northeast Ohio more than 60 years ago. We know what employers are looking for because we hear it on the shop floor, in supervisor huddles, and in hiring meetings. As Kyle on our team shared in a recent interview, the formula for earning a permanent job and advancing is clear. Reliability Wins Permanent Jobs Reliability is the number one reason people earn a permanent position through temp-to-hire. Not your idea of reliability. A universal standard. Be there every day. Build a plan for transportation, childcare, and emergencies before they happen. Arrive early and be ready to add value from minute one. Finish what you start. If an order is at risk, be the reason it ships on time. Keep a record of your attendance and output so you can demonstrate

Why Your Start Date Takes Time and How Champion Personnel Helps You Start Right

You’re ready to work on Monday. We hear it every day. You’re fired up, the opportunity looks great, and then you learn there is a process before day one. That pause can feel frustrating, especially when you need a paycheck. We get it, and we’re here to make that timeline clear, predictable, and as fast as possible without sacrificing a solid start. The Real Reason Most Start Dates Are Not Immediate Every employer runs a hiring process designed to protect their team and set new hires up for success. Some of our clients hire on a just start basis, which can get you on the job quickly. Most follow a traditional cycle that includes: Drug and background screening An interview process that may include skill assessments Final approvals from multiple managers, not just HR Scheduling a safety orientation Preparing a training schedule and confirming trainer availability Standardized start days, often Monday only That coordination prevents your first day from feeling chaotic. It ensures you walk into a safe workplace with the right training ready for you. Our Promise: Straight Shooting Timeline Clarity We believe in giving you inside information, and real information. Before we send you to an interview, we will walk you through the likely timeline based on our actual experience with that employer. If they only start on Mondays, you will know. If a physical or drug test is required, we will explain the turnaround time. History repeats itself. When we see a on
