Comments:
I just recently moved to the area and just registered with one temp agency, Custom Word Processing. It's been a week and still no call for work. I noticed that the office seems very hectic and unprofessional. In contrast, the temp agency I worked briefly at in the Baltimore/D.C. area found a position for me almost immediately and the environment was much more professional. Maybe its because I have very little financial experience and no legal, but I type fairly quickly and I know the wordprocessors and spreadsheets.
