Comments: Huge national temp agency. Have to be very good to get regular work. They had a deal with JP Morgan, so if you qualify for the morgan pool you can get work almost any time there. The pay is average. If you're persistent you can get past the receptionist to bug people for work. It's good to develop relationships with the personnel people directly.
