Comments:
Very bad agency. I applied online for an interview at a 10:15 am.
I go there and there is no one else but me waiting to meet someone. I inform the receptionist that I applied online and she seems confused and can't find my appointment. She finally finds it and then she goes about looking for someone to interview me. Every of the agents are FREE but no one seems to want to help me. They just tell the receptionist to go to the other agents until at the end, the head agent agrees to see me. He is in a rushed mood and don't really want to hear what I want to say and in less than 5 minutes he says that he will contact me, not bothering to really ask me in detail what I have to offer. So I walk back to the reception room and when Im gathering my things to leave, I see the head agent that I just spoke to pick up all his briefcase and run out of the office. He obviously did not bother to make me feel that they need my business, and he was just too busy to go home for a long weekend.

I find this to be very rude and bad experience for me. They are very unprofessional. Do not go to them.
