Comments:
I agree with one of the other respondents that this agency is very professional. Yet, I felt like it only had room for people who were expert on the software and typed a zillion words a minute. In other words, they have tests using the actual software and you had better know your stuff. Anyway, I worked with a counselor named Tom Weymouth and found him to be professional but he wanted me to spend 3 days in their in house tutorial program to bring up my skills but I got a call for a weelpaying long-term job so I declined to take the class.
