Comments:
Wow. The other review of this agency is spot-on. I temped A LOT for Artisan pre-crash. I held a permanent job for a while, and when I opted to make a major change in my life, I found this agency to be completely helpless / useless in terms of finding any work. It may have to do with the economy - but I don't know anyone working for them ... do you? And personally, I'm up to my neck in filling out anymore online applications that go into the void. If you register, prepare to never work. But keep bugging them; that's what they're there for.

Some agencies with great reviews may be really bad, and some agencies with bad reviews may be really great. As with everything online, be careful and don't believe everything you read.
