Comments:
I met with Nancy Riley, the recruiting manager, and she seemed very pleasant and helpful. I asked her if the agency had a lot of work and she said it did, emphasizing that Leafstone keeps its temps very busy. I went home and checked in with my counselor and was told that it was unusually slow. This happened for several days in a row, despite scoring very well on the tests. I felt that the only way to get work with this agency was to call them every day (at least twice PER DAY) and bug them. Needless to say I never got work from them.

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.
