A natural problem solver, New Orleans native Linele Barrow’s journey to President/CEO of DRC Staffing began with just that: a problem that needed solving.
“After working for several staffing agencies—in my experience as a black woman searching for accounting jobs—I was passed over for jobs that I was qualified for and offered lower paying jobs as compared to my peers of equal experience,” she says. Frustrated with the lack of visibility and appreciation, Linele was struck with an idea, a solution for helping herself and others. With DRC Staffing, she created a candidate-focused agency providing premier staffing solutions for accounting, healthcare, and construction professionals.
“My clients are important to me, but my candidates are just as important,” says Linele. “I want to make sure they are heard, valued, and appreciated for their talents.”
Linele credits all the people she’s encountered in life—her supportive father, Lionel Barrow, Jr., her inspiring children, and even those individuals who brought difficult life lessons—for making her who she is today.
“I have always dreamed of returning the blessings to others, helping others how I have been helped along my journey,” she says. “My company affords me the opportunity to do that.”
