Comments:
This agency had on the website (craigslist.org) that it had many legal positions available right then. I was interested in 2nd shift word processing. I e-mailed my resume and got a call response to come in and be tested. Went in, tested, interviewed with someone by the name of Nancy and was then told that things were slow and I should check in occasionally. When I called in for work I got someone name Mario(??) and he said there was nothing. When I asked him in a courteous way why would the agency put ads on the website as if work was available. He got an attitude and said WE WILL CALL YOU IF SOMETHING COMES IN (not even asking my name). He was such an ass. I have not gotten one assignment from this agency. I thought they were professional. 2 days later after registering someone called me and said they had a word processing position open and would I come in for testing, but when I told her that I had already tested, she changed up her story and said she will get back to me because she needed to get more information, but she never called back. Evidently they do not talk to each other. Don't waste your time going there, because they just lie about the jobs they have. Put you through all the testing and all of a sudden things are slow. I DEFINITELY do not recommend this agency.

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. I take no responsibility for what comes up when you google yourself.
