Comments:
Faxed 40 resumes to New York Times Ads. Monday morning they were the only one that called me. Interviewed by several department heads, Travis, Fenix and Mike. All very friendly. Could have gone out immediately on a job. Within a week they contacted a Fortune 500 company and sent me on a job interview. I've been trying to get a new job on my own for 6 months now. This company got me to a great interview. I start next week at a salary of $50,000. (Web design, technical writer). I can't thank this firm enough.

Note that all reviews are individual contributions and do not represent the opinion of the site administrator. They have not been independently verified, so there is nothing to stop someone from posting a pack of lies. Some agencies with great reviews may be really bad, and some agencies with bad reviews may be really great. As with everything online, be careful and don't believe everything you read. I take no responsibility for what comes up when you google yourself.
