PDI Connection: Where Recruiting Meets Passion, Drive, and Integrity
PDI Connection is Flipping the Script on Hiring—One Connection at a Time
Recruiting may be a business—but for Tamara Galla, it’s always been personal.
With over two decades of experience in the industry, Tamara launched PDI Connection in 2022 with a mission to bring purpose and positivity back to the hiring process. She wasn’t just looking to fill jobs—she wanted to connect the right people with the right companies in a way that felt meaningful, intentional, and yes—even fun.
Named for the values that guide everything they do—Passion, Drive, and Integrity—PDI Connection is a boutique recruiting and training company headquartered in St. Pete and proudly serving clients nationwide.
A Recruiting Style Rooted in Relationships
What sets PDI Connection apart isn’t just their placement success—it’s how they get there. Tamara and her team dig deep to understand each company’s culture and each candidate’s story. Their approach is hands-on, conversational, and deeply intuitive.
From executive search and talent placement to leadership training and background screenings, every service is designed to simplify hiring while elevating the experience for everyone involved.
Their offerings include:
Custom Recruiting for Executive to Entry-Level Roles
CE-Approved Interview Training for Hiring Teams
Workplace Culture & Morale Consulting
Keynote Speaking on Team Building and Customer Service
National Criminal Background Checks (at no extra charge!)
And their clients? They stick around—for the results and the experience.
Why St. Pete? Because Community Matters
Tamara didn’t just choose St. Pete because it’s beautiful (though it is). She chose it because it feels like home—a community that supports small businesses, values integrity, and celebrates growth.
From local favorites like Lolita’s Wine Market to The Vinoy and Urban Stillhouse, she’s deeply rooted in the energy of this city. And with each client partnership, PDI Connection aims to give back by strengthening the local workforce and uplifting the companies that make St. Pete shine.
Hiring with Heart—and Having Fun Along the Way
PDI Connection is proud to be a woman-owned, small-but-mighty team of three recruiting experts who bring energy, empathy, and excellence to every engagement. They're not afraid to shake things up—and they’re currently growing! If you're passionate about connecting people and building careers, they’re accepting applications for a Remote Business Development Specialist (email PDIconnection@outlook.com).
Whether you’re a company seeking your next rock star or a candidate ready to make a career move, PDI Connection is here to make the process personal again—and leave you feeling empowered, understood, and ready for what’s next.
