Who We Are

HJ Staffing is a certified Small Business Enterprise boutique staffing and recruiting firm headquartered in Houston, Texas. Founded in 2016 by Constance Jones, HJ Staffing, known as The Personnel Matchmaker™, has grown into a trusted workforce solutions partner for government agencies, public institutions, and private-sector organizations across Texas, Louisiana, Delaware, and California.

We specialize in government and public sector staffing, delivering customized workforce solutions through cooperative purchasing contracts, direct client partnerships, and multi-state recruiting networks. Whether you need one associate or an entire project team, we match the right talent to the right opportunity, with precision, professionalism, and purpose.

Our Story

HJ Staffing was built on one mission: identifying the qualified, overlooked candidate and matching them with top employers, with retention and ongoing support at the center of everything we do. 


We’ve always believed the best person for the job is often the one being passed over. Our work is finding them, placing them with purpose, and showing up long after the hire is made. Because a great placement isn’t just a fill. It’s a relationship, and that’s where most staffing firms stop showing up and where we’re just getting started. 


Constance Jones launched the firm in 2016 with a background in human resources management and a drive to create a staffing company that actually put people first, both the businesses struggling to find reliable talent and the job seekers who deserved more than a number in a database. 


What started as a Houston-based boutique agency has grown into a multi-state operation holding cooperative contracts with some of the most respected purchasing programs in the country, including HCDE Choice Partners, TX Share/TIPS, HGACBuy, and BuyBoard. We’ve placed talent in government agencies, school districts, healthcare networks, law enforcement support, and Fortune-level private clients. 


In 2024, HJ Staffing was named Supplier of the Year – Class 1 by the Houston Minority Supplier Development Council and recognized as a WBE2WBE Spend Honoree by the Women’s Business Enterprise Alliance. Constance was named one of Texas’ Top 50 Black Professionals and Entrepreneurs and recognized as a Top Staffing Leader to Watch by the World Staffing Awards. 


We didn’t grow by cutting corners. We grew by showing up, doing the work, and being the partner our clients could count on.
