Comments:
I could work steadily with T-H if I were interested. Their major client is a high-profile Wall Street investment banking always has assignments. Therefore, they expect "highly skilled" temps with "professionalism" who dress in "corporate", i.e. suits, or dresses for women attire. Very strict about this. Other assignments (midtown) have also been in the investment area. Julie Hodson, owner of the temp division, has always been delightful to work with, as are her assistants. Don't know if T-H ever implemented their medical plan for temps.
