Comments:
I arrived at this temp agency because I responded to a help-wanted ad for a position with a publishing company that seemed interesting. I got a call back, and scheduled an interview with a woman who casually failed to inform me that my interview was with an agency, not the publishing company I thought I'd responded directly to. Staffing By Hall, Inc is the most unprofessional place I have ever been in. Maybe I am too old fashioned, but I was interviewed by a completely disorganized woman in overalls and cowboy boots who gave me half her attention and spent her time pressing different jobs on me than the one I had called in about. She called later that day to say she had scheduled an interview for me with Company X (not the one I had first expressed interest in), but puncuated the call by chatting at length with her co-workers. I decided to cancel my interview with Company X the next day. I am convinced I can represent myself better on my own.

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.
