I registered with this agency (6/96) and within a week I was working, the first assignment lasted about 2 1/2 months and when the employer told me, (on Friday morning) that the assignment ended that day, I immediately called the agency and my wonderful counselor Susan had me working on Monday (3 days short term), after not working on Thurs and Friday she got me an assignment at a legal publishing firm, I started the next Monday (August 1996). I am still there and it is now 2/25/97. It almost went perm but the company merged with another and is moving Minnesota. I would definitely recommend this agency.
