About Always Best Care Baton Rouge
Always Best Care of Baton Rouge has been serving seniors for over 15 years under the leadership of owner Shonda Boudet. With client demand growing rapidly, the agency needed to expand its caregiver workforce to keep up. Shonda and her HR Director, Jill Edmonson, turned to Hellohire to help their team recruit at the pace the business required.
Problem
Recruiting was slow and manual, with recruiters spending hours on phone calls and scheduling. Applicant flow was too low to meet client demand, and screening inefficiencies made it harder to focus on strong candidates. The result: only 6 hires per month, limiting growth.
Solution
In 2025, Shonda and HR Director Jill Edmonson adopted Hellohire. The platform increased applicant flow, streamlined screening, and simplified scheduling — giving recruiters more time to focus on quality hires and helping the agency keep up with client demand.

“It surprised me how quickly we saw results — within weeks we had more candidates and more interviews scheduled.”
