Comments:
I just wanted to say that I used to work for Kelly when I lived in Atlanta, and they were WONDERFUL. There was always work, and I found a full time job through them after only a few assignments.

However, today, when I called the New York office, I was put on hold, then transferred to someone who put me on hold, then told to call a different number (but not transferred to it). I hung up and redialed and yes, i was once again put on hold. I doubt I'll go to the interview there. I know if I was interviewing Kelly for a job, I'd certainly not hire them.

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.
