Comments:
This is by far the most unprofessional agency that I have ever been to. I am a accountant with three years experience and posted my resume on Hotjobs. I received about ten calls in the span of two days from this agency demanding that I call them right away because they have have something for me. I did not want to use a personnel agency but relented when their phone calls would not stop. I went to their "office" for an interview and met with no less than three counselors. Each one knew less about what they were talking about than the next, but they all guaranteed that they had something for me. Needless to say, I never heard about any of these "incredible" opportunities again. As a matter of fact, they never even picked up the phone again when I called back to inquire about the jobs. Avoid them like the plague. It's a boiler room.
