Comments:
I registered with this agency and was given Excel, PowerPoint and Word tests on which I did very well. The recruiting agent for permanent jobs, Margaret Solomon, said she'd call me when she had something. I never heard from her. I contacted her a couple of times and she said she had nothing. So I spoke with Melissa martinez who handles temp positions at the office who assured me tht with my experience and computer skills I should be able to get a job easily. She asked that I call her the follwing day which I did. I got her voice and left a message and then left four additional messages over the next week. She never had the decency to return my call.

Note that all reviews are individual contributions and do not represent the opinion of the site administrator. They have not been independently verified, so there is nothing to stop someone from posting a pack of lies. 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.
