Comments:
This is a crew of professionals. Rosemary Scott was the last stop I made while applying to temp agencies around New York when I first moved here. I had been unemployed for over 2 months and had been jerked around by Essex, Vanguard, Force One, and Smith Personel Services. My friend reccommended I try Rosemary Scott. I went to the office on Friday morning, the staff was only 4 people, but they jumped up to say hello and were very professional. My testing took the typical couple of hours, but the interview was done very well. I left that afternoon and by Monday, 8:30am, I was offered a job at CBS. That lasted for two stints of 4 and 3 months. I've never had a bad workplace yet.

Margaret and Dionne are workhorses. They are a dynamic duo that is a great help to anyone. I was paid nothing lower than $14 an hour, plus I also got a lot of overtime. I've never had an assignment under a week.

The company also has very good business connections. The two biggest companies that employ them are CBS and Sony. If you get in good at one of these companies, you will be requested again and again.

I reccommend Rosemary Scott (they are now know as Venturi) staffing to anyone.
