Comments:
Offer health benefits after amassing 300 hours in 10 week period. After one year period, health is free for temp, and a week's vacation (40 hours) is paid. Offer 401k and match 25% of your pre-tax contribution. Staff is extrememly pleasant and professional. Their recruiters were very helpful in matching me to the right opportunities and providing me with further training. Were not so anxious to fill the job that they forced me to take positions I was not comfortable with.

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.
