Comments:
I had worked for this agency a little over a year and for the most part, they kept me busy with assignments. However, the assignments rarely matched the description they had intially given me. Often, i found myself having to harass the client for work to do instead their being enough to keep me occupied. The staff is very well mannered no question. Beware of negotiating rates. If you mishandle that skill, you may find yourself low on their priority list. Remember though, you are big money to them. They are making minimum $50.00 per hour over your salary.
