Comments:
At this agency they were all really nice but..... I mean really how many people do you need to see at a damn temp agency? I mean first they have you meet with someone for a "pre-screen" then you take one test then another. The test are used on the actual software and for those like myself who always score 100% on Quiz, they are refreshingly different. However, in looking back the agency should really just use Quiz Whiz with the more advanced functions cuz it's really the same old crap. After I'd finished talking to two people and testing they said someone may call me for a "phone interview" I looked at the lady and said, "What more do you guys want to know about me?" All in all it seemed like a decent agency but.... only go if you've really got time to kill because there are other agencies that don't have such nonsense testing and interviewing principles and assignments that are surely alot more interesting and you won't be there for 2-3 hours.
