Comments:
The people in this Agency are PHONIES! They tell you so many good jobs that they have for you, and tell you that they will represent you for work at many companies for which they represent. But, in the end, after you leave their crummy-looking office feeling good and confident about yourself, because of the so many positive things that they have told you, they got nothing for you. In fact, it has been 10 days since I registered with this agency, and I am still waiting for a call from this car-salesman of a VP at this agency about several positions that he has promised for me. I call back, but he is always "in a meeting with clients", or "on the phone with clients", but I highly doubt it from the look of him, and the agency that he comes from. What company would want to talk to these PHONIES? Sorry for the ranting, but this agency has wasted my time, and I am upset. I will move on.

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.
