Comments:
The staff at Forum Personnel is very professional and efficient. I enjoyed all of my assignments--they were all interesting and challenging, which doesn't seem to be the typical experience in temporary work.
There was an incident at one of my assignments (that did not involve me) that made working there very uncomfortable. I was able to meet with my counselor immediately and it was no problem whatsoever to change my assignment. It was handled very discreetly and professionally.
