Clients: My impression is that this agency, unlike any other, tries to find the best match between your background and interests and their openings.

Salary: $16 and up

Benefits: automatic deposit; 401K, medical at group rate (you pay--but it's less than buying it on your own)

Comments: I would not consider working for any other temp agency. TAD really treats you as what you are: their employee. The NYC staff is highly professional but very friendly and considerate, and they always keep their word. Another way in which they differ from other temp agencies is that their clients are also wonderful to work with. All of my experience--and they've kept me very busy--has been with first-rate companies and departments within these companies. I highly recommend this agency for anyone looking for temp work in any capacity.

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.
